Damage characterization on human femur bone by means of ultrasonics and acoustic emission Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Textile reinforced cement based composites (TRC) are a new class of sustainable construction materials with superior tensile strength and ductility. These materials have the potential for becoming load bearing structural members, therefore a wide array of structural and non-structural applications are possible. However, their heterogeneous, laminated, fibrous nature complicates the understanding of their fracture behavior. During bending, the ...
