Abstract: Abstract Aggregate interlocking allows transferring shear and normal stresses through open cracks, and is considered to significantly contribute to the force transfer in cracked concrete. The complex phenomenon depends on the roughness of cracked surfaces,… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract The fundamental assumptions motivating the use of cylindrical (CCE) and spherical (SCE) cavity expansion solutions for the prediction of penetration mechanics are revisited. Predictions of an ovoid of Rankine model (OR), which has been… read more here.
