The effect of hydrogen on the fatigue life of high strength steel
… test specimens changed from a circumferential crack to a 45° diagonal crack. At a 90% confidence limit, charging with hydrogen did not affect the fatigue life of the V-notched specimens. At a 99% confidence limit for both the smooth and V-notched test specimens, testing in a hydrogen …

Behaviour of continuously supported self-compacting concrete deep beams
… ratio. All beams failed due to a major diagonal crack formed between the applied mid-span load and the intermediate support separating the beam into two blocks: the first one rotated around the end support leaving the rest of the beam fixed on the other two supports. The amount and …

Seismic Assessment of Singly Reinforced Concrete Walls in Pre-1970s Multi-Storey Buildings
… shear failure characterised by sliding along a diagonal crack. The drift capacity model in NZ assessment guidelines was reviewed and further verified by the experimental and numerical modelling results to justify its capabilities of evaluating the response of older reinforced concrete walls. The …

Behaviour of fracture process zones in concrete influenced by simultaneously applied normal and shear displacements
… the thesis is in accordance with the "Fictitious Crack Model" which is a model based on the softening properties of concrete. The model was originally developed in order to describe the crack propagation in concrete when the direction of the principal stresses remains consiant during the entire …
