Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic (GFRP) composites as rolled bars can be used as steel rebar to prevent oxidation or rust which is one of the main reasons concrete structures deteriorate when exposed to chlorides and other harmful chemicals. GFRP is successful alternative for reinforcement with high tensile strength- low strain, corrosion resistance and congenital electromagnetic neutrality in terms of longer service life. The main goal of the study is to investigate the mechanical and bonding properties of GFRP bars and equivalent steel reinforcing bars then compare them. GFRP and steel rebar are embedded in concrete block with three different levels. Mechanical properties of GFRP and steel bars in terms of strength and strains are determined. On the other hand; modulus of elasticity of GFRP and steel bars, modulus of toughness and modulus of resilience were calculated using stress-strain curves, as a result of the experiments. Pull-out tests are conducted on each GFRP and rebar samples which are embedded in concrete for each embedment level and ultimate adherence strengths are determined in terms of bar diameter–development length ratio. Yield strength, strain and modulus of elasticities of GFRP samples are compared to steel rebar. According to the test results reported in this study, GFRP bars are used safely instead of steel bars in terms of mechanical properties.

Interfacial behavior in the microstructure and the plastic deformation in the protein matrix influence the overall mechanical properties of biological hard tissues. A cohesive finite element model has been developed to investigate the inelastic mechanical properties of bone-like biocomposites consisting of hard mineral crystals embedded in soft biopolymer matrix. In this study, the complex interaction between plastic dissipation in the matrix and bonding properties of the interface between minerals and matrix is revealed, and the effect of such interaction on the toughening of bone-like biocomposites is identified. For the case of strong and intermediate interfaces, the toughness of biocomposites is controlled by the post yield behavior of biopolymer; the matrix with low strain hardening can undergo significant plastic deformation, thereby promoting enhanced fracture toughness of biocomposites. For the case of weak interfaces, the toughness of biocomposites is governed by the bonding property of the interface, and the post-yield behavior of biopolymer shows negligible effect on the toughness. The findings of this study help to direct the path for designing bioinspired materials with superior mechanical properties.

The tensile behaviors of corroded steel bars are important in the capacity evaluation of corroded reinforced concrete structures. The present paper studies the mechanical behavior of the corroded high strength reinforcing steel bars under static and dynamic loading. High strength reinforcing steel bars were corroded by using accelerated corrosion methods and the tensile tests were carried out under different strain rates. The results showed that the mechanical properties of corroded high strength steel bars were strain rate dependent, and the strain rate effect decreased with the increase of corrosion degree. The decreased nominal yield and ultimate strengths were mainly caused by the reduction of cross-sectional areas, and the decreased ultimate deformation and the shortened yield plateau resulted from the intensified stress concentration at the nonuniform reduction. Based on the test results, reduction factors were proposed to relate the tensile behaviors with the corrosion degree and strain rate for corroded bars. A modified Johnson-Cook strength model of corroded high strength steel bars under dynamic loading was proposed by taking into account the influence of corrosion degree. Comparison between the model and test results showed that proposed model properly describes the dynamic response of the corroded high strength rebars.

ABSTRACTFirst principles total energy local density method have addressed the problems of (i) bonding, cohesion and phase stability and (ii) the role of ternary additions, anti-phase boundaries (APB's) and other faults in determining the structural, electronic and mechanical properties of aluminum intermetallic alloys. A key goal has been to attempt to understand, at the electronic level, fundamental quantities that may be related to the crucial brittleness vs. ductility issue in high temperature Ni and Ti and other aluminides. Other contrasts between observed ductility properties of related systems (e.g., NiAl and RuAl) are related to their differing electronic and bonding properties, particularly the nature of p-d hybridization and the directional properties of their electronic charge distrubutions - especially for states near the Fermi energy.

Reinforced concrete is a material formed by pouring concrete over reinforcement steel bars and wires and sometimes by a polymer that turns by drying in a hard and rigid composite. Welding of steel reinforcement concrete is a relatively difficult operation and with a large amount of work, given by the large number of welds that are needed and when this work is make in site conditions. The most common method of steel reinforcement welding is manual welding with coated electrode. The major disadvantage of this process is low productivity in welding effects on execution time, and the cost of welding. An alternative to manual welding with coated electrode for steel reinforcement welding on site is the welding process with self-shielded tubular wires.The aim of this paper is to determine the mechanical properties of welded reinforcing steel PC 52 with self-shielded wires, using a vibroacustic technique. To validate this method, the results obtained by vibroacoustic signal processing are compared with those determined by the tensile stresses of the same samples.

Titanium and titanium alloys have excellent corrosion and heat resistance, but weak electric and thermal conductivity. The weak conductivity of titanium can be overcome by cladding with copper, which has high conductivity. Although titanium is expensive, it is selected as a material suitable for applications requiring corrosion resistance such as in heat exchangers. This study was to investigate the effect of post heat treatment on the mechanical properties of the Ti/Cu cold-rolled clad plate by using the interfacial diffusion bonding. A titanium clad by cold rolling should be heat-treated after the rolling process to improve the bonding properties through the diffusion of metals and removal of residual stress due to work hardening, despite the easy formation of intermetallic compounds of Ti and Cu. As a result post-treatment, the elongation was improved by more than two times from 21% to max. 53% by the Ti-Cu interface diffusion phenomenon and the average tensile strength of the 450 °C heat-treated specimens was 353 MPa. By securing high elongation while maintaining excellent tensile and yield strength through post-treatment, the formability of Ti-Cu clad plate can be greatly improved.
