Structure And Microstructure

In order to study the mechanistic differences between recycled aggregate concrete (RAC)and normal aggregate concrete(NAC), the magnifier and scanning electron microscope were used to observe the meso-interfacial structure and microstructure of interfacial transition zone morphology of the RAC respectively, and analysed differences between RAC and NAC; Secondly, the finite element software ABAQUS was used to simulation the simplified model of RAC. The above analysis results show that, there existe a transition zone in the interface, the aggregate-new mortar interface as well as the new-old mortar interface has been obvious cracks before loading, this part is the weak link of RAC ;After loading, the crack occurs first in the old interface, then appeared at the new interface, and then develop to the old mortar, finally, there formed a through crack.

With the achievements made in the research of mechanical properties for recycled aggregate concrete, this paper adopts the method of nonlinear finite element to analyze the seismic behavior of frame joints. The frame joints are made of recycled aggregate concrete. It also takes into account the bond behavior between steel bars and recycled aggregate concrete in the core area of the joints, and the force-displacement curve of the joints is calculated. Nonlinear finite element analysis shows that the results of the calculations are in accordance with the test results. It is concluded in this paper that, built models with nonlinear finite element method can be applied in simulating exactly the same seismic behavior of frame joints under low frequency reversed lateral loading.

Chloride Diffusivity

In this study, the multiscale stochastic finite element method (MsSFEM) was developed based on a novel digital image kernel to make analysis for chloride diffusion in recycled aggregate concrete (RAC). It is significant to study the chloride diffusivity in RAC, because when RAC was applied in coastal areas, chloride-induced rebar corrosion became a common problem for concrete infrastructures. The MsSFEM was an efficient tool to examine the effect of microscopic randomness of RAC on the chloride diffusivity. Based on the proposed digital image kernel, the Karhunen–Loeve expansion and the polynomial chaos were used in the stochastic homogenization process. To investigate advantages and disadvantages of both generation and application of the proposed digital image kernel, it was compared with many other kernels. The comparisons were made between the method to develop the digital image kernel, which is called the pixel-matrix method, and other methods, and between the application of the kernel and various other kernels. It was shown that the proposed digital image kernel is superior to other kernels in many aspects.

Stub Columns

The mechanical behaviors of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) are upgraded by outer steel tube confinement, and the performance of recycled aggregate concrete-filled steel tubular (RACFST) columns is similar to that of the traditional concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns. The purpose of this study is to investigate the behaviors of recycled aggregate concrete-filled rectangular steel tubular (RACFRST) stub columns under axial loading. Three-dimensional finite element (FE) models were established, which utilized a triaxial plastic-damage constitutive RAC model considering the replacement ratio of recycled aggregates. The finite element analysis results indicated that the lessened ultimate bearing capacity of RACFRST stub columns compared with their traditional concrete infilled counterparts was mainly due to the weakened confinement effect and confinement efficiency. A simplified formula of the bearing capacity of concentrically loaded RACFRST stub columns was proposed. The cross-sectional stress nephogram was reasonably simplified by the limited state of infilled concrete. The basics of proposed formula were the equilibrium condition and the superposition method. Finally, the formula for the bearing capacity of RACFRST stub columns was evaluated by comparing its accuracy and feasibility to some design formulae proposed by specialists and some design codes of different regions.

The Impact

Through a pull-out test was designed, by means of slotted steel strain gauge pasted point detection techniques, and finite element simulation. The load-slip curves between recycled concrete with different recycled coarse aggregate replacement percentage and rebar were recorded. This article studies the impact of different recycled aggregate replacement rate and the anchorage length for the bond strength between the recycled aggregate concrete and reinforced, and provides a beneficial reference for engineering design of recycled concrete structure under similar conditions. Come to the bonding properties of reinforced recycled concrete with recycled aggregate rate increase gradually decrease in the anchorage length sufficient to meet the design requirements, performance depends on the pull-out strength of reinforced recycled concrete and reinforced the bond. Through the finite element analysis software ANSYS, the analysis of simulation results and test results are in good agreement.
