Microwave curing of portland cement concrete: experimental results and feasibility for practical applications
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of microwave on the early strength and later age (7 day) of both mortar and concrete specimens are reported, and important issues relating to the development of the microwave curing technique for practical construction applications are discussed.

Shear Span–Depth Ratio Effect on Behavior of RC Beam Shear Strengthened with Full-Wrapping FRP Strip
Weiwen Li,Christopher K.Y. Leung +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the effect of span-to-effective depth ratio (av/d) on the behaviors of RC beams shear strengthened with full-wrapping fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) strips.

Flaw characterization and correlation with cracking strength in Engineered Cementitious Composites (ECC)
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors employed X-ray computed tomography method to investigate the correlation between cracking strength and flaw distribution in ECC, and identified the dimensions of pre-existing flaws to be the main influencing parameters.

Experimental study on RC beams with FRP strips bonded with rubber modified resins
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of adhesive properties on structural performance of reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened with carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) strips were investigated, and it was suggested that the rubber modifier enhanced the structural performance by increasing the maximum load-carrying capacity and corresponding ductility, compared with the beams bonded with a neat epoxy resin.

Environmental degradation of epoxy-organoclay nanocomposites due to UV exposure: Part II residual mechanical properties
TL;DR: The residual mechanical properties of epoxy-organoclayered nanocomposites after moisture and UV exposure have been evaluated in this paper, showing that the elastic modulus varied little with UV exposure time regardless of organoclay, because the modulus was determined by the core material which was unaffected by UV exposure.
