Effect of ageing and water action on the cracking resistance of asphalt mixtures
(Springer, 2016)
Comunicació de congrés
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialCracking in asphalt layers is one of the most frequent distress mechanisms in flexible pavements due to thermal stresses and traffic loads. Furthermore, the ageing phenomenon along with moisture damage are the key factors ... -
Effect of bitumen type and content on the cracking resistance of asphalt mixtures at different temperatures
(Springer, 2016)
Comunicació de congrés
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialBitumen type and content are two of the variables that most influence on the cracking resistance of an asphalt mixture, since both determine a more or less ductile fracture. Furthermore, this cracking resistance will be ... -
Estado de la resistencia a la fisuración de las mezclas bituminosas: ensayos Fénix y EBADE
(2011-04)
Article
Accés obertEste artículo propone el empleo de dos ensayos desarrollados por el Laboratorio de Caminos de la Universidad Politécnica de Cataluña, uno estático de tracción (ensayo Fénix) y otro cíclico de tracción-compresión (ensayo ... -
Experimental comparison of two testing setups for characterizing the shear mechanical properties of masonry
(Elsevier, 2021-09-08)
Article
Accés obertThe prediction of the structural capacity of masonry buildings against lateral loads requires an accurate characterization of the masonry strength and the general response under shear stresses. The experimental determination ... -
Sources of error and limits of applying the energetic-based-regularization method
(CIMNE, 2015)
Comunicació de congrés
Accés obertIn this work, the energetic regularization technique based on the Crack Band approach is studied. The main objective is to identify the sources of errors related to the application of such technique under 2D and 3D ... -
Structural size effect: experimental, theoretical and accurate computational assessment
(Elsevier, 2020-06)
Article
Accés obertIn this paper, experimental evidence, theoretical predictions and the finite element modelling of the structural size effect in cracking problems of quasi-brittle materials are discussed and assessed against each other. ... -
Torque Penetrometric Test for the in-situ characterisation of historical mortars: fracture mechanics interpretation and experimental validation
(2017-12)
Article
Accés obertThe assessment of historical structures requires appropriate knowledge of the behaviour of the investigated materials. Concerning masonry, its mechanical characterisation is a challenging task, since its composite nature ...
