Influence of environmental loading on the tensile and cracking behaviour of textile reinforced cementitious composites Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Acoustic emission for characterization of failure mechanisms in textile reinforced mortar laminates under tensile loading Vrije Universiteit Brussel
AE parameters and indices to the different fracture mechanisms that are successively activated during the failure process of the complex TRC composite material. These mechanisms include multiple matrix ...
High performance textile reinforced cements: tensile hardening behaviour and modeling Vrije Universiteit Brussel
A fundamental investigation of textile reinforced cementitious composites tensile response by Acoustic Emission Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The fracture processes on coupons of glass-fibre textile reinforced cementitious (TRC)matrix composites under tension are revealed using acoustic emission monitoring (AE)method. The fundamental study, based on acoustic signals magnitude, shape and frequency content, discloses the presence of early mortar micro-cracking and assesses the nature of multi-scale damage developed as the ultimate matrix strength is reached. At post-cracking stage, ...
Monitoring the failure mechanisms of a reinforced concrete beam strengthened by textile reinforced cement using acoustic emission and digital image correlation Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Influence of Loading Orientation and Knitted Versus Woven Transversal Connections in 3D Textile Reinforced Cement (TRC) Composites Vrije Universiteit Brussel
AE monitoring of 3D textile reinforced cements Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Experimental investigation and benchmarking of 3D textile reinforced cementitious composites Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The last couple of years, the importance and potential of textile reinforced cementitious composites (TRC’s) has been investigated and proven in literature. The research has mainly been performed on thin-layered specimens made of individual fibre textile layers impregnated by a matrix. The drawback of this manufacturing technique however is the time-consuming process. A solution is the transition towards a three dimensional, rigid fibre ...
