The existence of pores is a very common feature of nature and of human life, but the existence of pores will alter the mechanical properties of the material. Therefore, it is very important to study the impact of different influencing factors on the mechanical properties of porous materials and to use the law of change in mechanical properties of porous materials for our daily lives. The SBFEM (scaled boundary finite element method) method is used in this paper to calculate a large number of random models of porous materials derived from Matlab code. Multiple influencing factors can be present in these random models. Based on the Monte Carlo simulation, after a large number of model calculations were carried out, the results of the calculations were analyzed statistically in order to determine the variation law of the mechanical properties of porous materials. Moreover, this paper gives fitting formulas for the mechanical properties of different materials. This is very useful for researchers estimating the mechanical properties of porous materials in advance.

Laminated Bamboo Lumber

This paper presents and discusses the experimental study on the mechanical properties of LBL column both under axial and eccentric compression. The results shows that the ultimate load for the eccentric compression specimens with the eccentricity values of 30 mm and 110 mm are 95.2 kN and 31.8 kN respectively. Eccentricity is one of the main influencing factors for the ultimate bearing capacity of the LBL columns. Because of the vulnerability of the mechanical connections or natural nodes to tensile stress and secondly, laminated bamboo is vulnerable to defects that has more detrimental influence on the tensile resistance of the material. The variation in strain for the laminated bamboo lumber column sections is linear throughout the loading process, following standard normal section bending theory which is similar as that for the beam.

Al2O3-TiO-TiO2 multiphase foam ceramic was prepared with Al powders and TiO2 powders by combustion synthesis, Direct observation and metallographic microscope indicated that the pore diameter is 100~6000μm, and Archimedean method showed that the porosity is 35~50%. The influencing factors of the pore diameter and porosity and, the effects of adding SiO2 on compression strength of the Al2O3- TiO-TiO2 multiphase foam ceramic were discussed. It was shown that the addition of proper high temperature foaming agent can increase porosity and adding SiO2 can decrease porosity. The Al2O3-TiO-TiO2 multiphase foam ceramic has good mechanical properties and high-temperature resistance.

Fiber reinforcement is widely used in construction engineering to improve the mechanical properties of soil because it increases the soil’s strength and improves the soil’s mechanical properties. However, the mechanical properties of fiber-reinforced soils remain controversial. The present study investigated the mechanical properties of silty clay reinforced with discrete, randomly distributed sisal fibers using triaxial shear tests. The sisal fibers were cut to different lengths, randomly mixed with silty clay in varying percentages, and compacted to the maximum dry density at the optimum moisture content. The results indicate that with a fiber length of 10 mm and content of 1.0%, sisal fiber-reinforced silty clay is 20% stronger than nonreinforced silty clay. The fiber-reinforced silty clay exhibited crack fracture and surface shear fracture failure modes, implying that sisal fiber is a good earth reinforcement material with potential applications in civil engineering, dam foundation, roadbed engineering, and ground treatment.

AbstractEstimation of physical and mechanical properties of cohesive soil stabilized by hydratized lime addition. Process of chemical stabilization of cohesive soils influences its mechanical properties, also in the case of soil cohesion. Road constructions consist of few layers which have various mechanical properties and this creates the need for better understanding the impact of chemical stabilization on soil as a layer of road. For the purposes of this article, tests were carried out in order to establish physical and mechanical properties, especially the penetrating resistance CBR test. The main aim of this paper was to estimate the cohesion of the soil, which was sandy-silty clay stabilized with hydrated lime
