The impact ductility of plain concrete and polymer-modified concrete with different p-c (polymer-cement) ratio were measured by bend-impact method. The impact-resistance of plain concrete and polymer-modified concrete were contrasted. The modified mechanism of polymer-modified concrete was analyzed. The results indicate that the impact ductility of concrete are increased with contents of polymer firstly and then reduced and the best p-c ratio is 15%. The test results also indicate that the concrete performance are modified by polymer, which prevent crack developing in microcosmic and improve impact ductility in macroscopic.

Compressive Strength Of Concrete

This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation of the compressive strength of concrete cubes containing termite mound soil. The specimens were cast using M20 grade of concrete. Two mix ratios for replacement of sand and cement are of 1:1.7:2.7 and 1:1.5:2.5 (cement: sand: aggregate) with water- cement ratio of 0.45 and varying combination of termite mound soil in equal amount ranging from 30% and 40% replacing fine aggregate (sand) and cement from 10%,15%,20% were used. A total of 27 cubes, 18 cylinders and 6 beams were cast by replacing fine aggregate, specimens were cured in water for 7,14 and 28 days. The test results showed that the compressive strength of the concrete cubes increases with age and decreases with increasing percentage replacement of cement and increases with increasing the replacement of sand with termite mound soil cured in water. The study concluded that termite mound cement concrete is adequate to use for construction purposes in natural environment.

In the paper the results of an experimental program intended to determine factors influencing the impact resistance of the External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems (ETICS) were presented. For the research the systems based on polystyrene have been chosen. The insulation material was faced with a rendering consisting of base coat reinforced with standard or armored glass fibre mesh and silicone or silicone-silicate binders as finishing coats. The influence of various renderings components was evaluated with respect to resistance to hard body impact and resistance to hail. The test results were discussed in the context of the possible impact level on ETICS in use.

The Impact

This paper studies the effect of water-cement ratio [w/ on the air-void parameters of cement concrete, which has a significant influence on the durability of concrete. Based on the experimental investigation, it is found that the impact on the air content of hardened concrete due to different water-cement ratio is not great. Test results also indicate that with the increase of water-cement ratio, the spacing factors also experienced a marked rise, and the mean diameters as well as the specific areas of air voids evidently increased or declined, respectively, which may lead to an adverse effect on the frost resistance of concrete.

This paper reports about a nozzle array structure fluidic gyroscope. The gyro used setting sub-nozzle around the main nozzle to inhibit the attenuation which had been caused by the main nozzle jet column spread out and to increase the angular velocity difference of sensitive element in the thermal resistance wire when the jet flow rate had been input, thereby to improve the performance of the jet gyro. The test results showed that: a resolution of better than 0.1°/s nozzle formation jet gyro sensitivity better than 10mv/(0.1°/s), the measurement range is better than ± 60°/s; non-linearity of better than 1%.The impact of the gyroscope impact resistance capability, small size and wide range of applications.

The Impact

Coated components used in industry are often exposed to repetitive dynamic impact load. The dynamic impact test is a suitable method for the study of thin protective coatings under such conditions. Aim of this paper is to describe the method of dynamic impact testing and the novel concepts of evaluation of the impact test results, such as the impact resistance and the impact deformation rate. All of the presented results were obtained by testing two W-B-C coatings with different C/W ratio. Different impact test results are discussed with respect to the coatings microstructure, the chemical and phase composition, and the mechanical properties. It is shown that coating adhesion to the HSS substrate played a crucial role in the coatings’ impact lifetime.

The mixture proportion of recycled concrete was discussed by orthogonal design method. The influence of water-cement ratio, recycled aggregate quantity on workability, cube compressive strength of recycled concrete was analyzed. The experimental results indicated that，Recycled concrete mix proportion design should consider the impact of the water absorption of recycled aggregate. Unit water amount of recycled concrete should be plain concrete unit water consumption and recycled aggregate additional amount of water. Sand ratio should increase in the corresponding ordinary aggregate concrete sand ratio on the basis of 1 to 3 percent. When the water-cement ratio is 0.36 and construction waste content of 40% slag content of 20%, 28d compressive strength of concrete is 48.1MPa, slightly higher than the reference concrete (48.0MPa).
