The different influencing regular of fly-ash fractiontype of fibre (steel fibre and polypropylene fibre) and fibre fraction on the mechanical property and fracture behavior of Reactive Powder Concrete (PRC) are studied. Fracture mechanical properties of RPC is researched in double-K fracture model and fracture energy release rate G . Test results show that the crack propagation of RPC with steel fibers is limited. Its fracture toughness and pre-critical crack length is largely enhanced. Double-K fracture model and fracture energy release rate G are consistent with describing the fracture behavior of RPC.

Static Mechanical Properties

This paper investigates the static mechanical properties and flexural impact properties of reactive powder concrete (RPC) reinforced by the basalt fiber through various experimental works. The results indicate that the highest flexural and compressive strength can be obtained when the fiber content is 3kg/m3. Length and diameter of basalt fiber both influence the mechanical properties. The basalt fiber of 25mm long and 18μ in diameter can have an ideal strengthening effect. The static mechanical properties and flexural impact resistance can be improved to a considerable extent.

Basalt fiber (BF) is a new anti-corrosion and environmentally friendly material, which is expected to delay the corrosion process of steel bars and improve the durability of reinforced reactive powder concrete (RPC). The electrochemical method is a nondestructive testing and real-time monitoring technique used to characterize the corrosion behaviors of steel bars embedded in concrete structures. In this paper, the electrochemical technique was employed to evaluate the corrosion of steel bars embedded in basalt fiber modified reactive powder concrete (BFRPC). Besides, crack and steel-concrete interface damage (SCID) were considered as typical factors that affect steel corrosion in concrete. Thus, both reinforced fiber-free RPC and BFRPC specimens with crack and SCID were prepared for evaluating the steel corrosion behaviors by electrochemical methods. The results revealed that both crack and SCID would aggravate the steel corrosion, and the crack was the major factor that affects the corrosion process. Moreover, the excellent compactness of BFRPC and the bridging action of BF could effectively prevent the concrete cracking and steel corrosion process of concrete. Using reinforced BFRPC instead of ordinary concrete in practical projects could greatly extend the service life of steel bars.

Basalt fibers are widely used in the modification of concrete materials due to its excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. In this study, the basalt fibers were used to modify reactive powder concrete (RPC). The effect of four mix proportion parameters on the working and mechanical properties of basalt fiber reactive powder concrete (BFRPC) was evaluated by the response surface methodology (RSM). The fluidity, flexural and compressive strength were tested and evaluated. A statistically experimental model indicated that D (the silica fume to cement ratio) was the key of interactions between factors, affecting other factors and controlling properties of BFRPC. The increase in basalt fiber content had a remarkable effect on increasing the flexural and compressive strength when D = 0.2. The addition of basalt fiber obviously improved the mechanical properties of RPC. While when D = 0.4, the decrease of fiber content and the increase of quartz sand content could increase the compressive strength.

The Impact

Composite materials have been demonstrated to possess excellent antipenetration capacities, but the existing studies have not involved the penetration characteristics of ceramic-concrete composite targets. To investigate the antipenetration mechanisms of fiber ceramic-reactive powder concrete (FC-RPC) composite targets, three pieces of FC-RPC composite targets were designed to perform penetration tests. Antipenetration tests were performed with a special howitzer with a diameter of 125 mm. The test parameters, such as the impact velocity, failure pattern of projectiles, penetration depth, crater diameter, and failure model of targets, were obtained. It was found that the FC-RPC targets exhibited an excellent antipenetration capacity and failed in a ductile manner, the target caused an obvious erosion effect on projectiles at low speed (i.e., 375 m/s), and the antipenetration performance of the composite target was improved by increasing the thickness of the FC target. Simultaneously, numerical simulations of FC-RPC targets subjected to projectile impact were carried out by using LS-DYNA codes. Separately, combined and integrated finite element models were used to analyze the effect of the fiber layer in the composite target. The numerical results of the combined model were in good agreement with the experimental data, and the reliabilities of simulation were validated. The differential protection factor of the FC-RPC targets was obtained based on the penetration tests and numerical simulation, and an empirical formula for multilayer targets was presented.
