Thus, the appropriate fillerbitumen ratio directly affects the asphalt mortar's performance. This paper tested the physical indexes of the No. 70 matrix asphalt mortar modified by additive Sasobit (SB) and Sasowam (SW) through dynamic shear rheometer and bending beam rheometer under different temperature conditions, and comprehensively analyzed the high-temperature anti-rutting and fatigue performance, low-temperature crack resistance performance, and ductility of asphalt mortar. The results show that ore powder not only can increase the antirutting factor but also can increase the aging resistance of asphalt. SB has better performances than SW at high temperatures. As for the filler-bitumen ratio of asphalt mortar with additive SB, the recommended value is between 0.8 and 1.2, and the value may be a little larger for that with SW.展开更多

The axial compressive load was applied step by step and each creep stage was kept for over several days. Test results show that: (1) The lateral deformation of rock specimens is 2-3 times the axial compressive deformation and accelerates drastically before damage, which may be employed as an indicator to predict the excavation-induced instability of rocks. (2) The resultant deformation changes from compression to expansion when the Poisson's ratio is larger than 0.5, indicating the starting point of damage. (3) In the step-loading stages, the Poisson's ratio approximately remains constant; under constantly imposed load, the Poisson's ratio changes with elapsed time, growing continuously before the specimen is damaged. (4) When the applied load reaches a certain threshold value, the rock deteriorates with time, and the strength of rocks approximately has a negative exponent relation with time. (5) The failure modes of the deep marble are different in long- and short-term loading conditions. Under the condition of short-term loading, the specimen presents a mode of tensile failure; while under the condition of long-term loading, the specimen presents a mode of shear failure, followed by tensile failure.展开更多

With the aim to obtain those parameters, an experimental investigation is carried out on sealed concrete. Altogether ten specimens were tested, out of which four were for creep, two for shrinkage and remaining four for relaxation test. A year of relaxation test and two years of creep test results were analyzed to compute aging coefficient and creep coefficient. From regression analysis of observed and calculated aging coefficient using formula of Bazant and Kim, modification for aging coefficient is performed and extrapolation equations are generated. Instead of ACI model, B3 model has been used to obtain compliance function as the parameters of B3 model seems more relevant to creep mechanism of concrete compared to that of ACI model.展开更多

To investigate the influences of concrete creep on the buckling strength of arches, a theoretical analysis for the creep buckling of CFST circular arches under distributed radial load is performed. The simplified Arutyunyan-Maslov (AM) creep law is used to model the creep behavior of concrete core, and the creep integral operator is introduced. The analytical solutions of the time-dependent buckling strength under the sustained load are achieved and compared with the existing formula based on the age-adjusted effective modulus method (AEMM). Then the solutions are used to determine the influences of the steel ratio and the first loading age on the creep buckling of CFST arches. The results show that the analytical solutions are of good accuracy and applicability. For CFST arches, the steel ratio and the first loading age have significant influences on creep buckling. An approximate log-linear relationship between the decreased degrees of the creep buckling strength and the first loading age is found. For the commonly used parameters, the maximum loss of the buckling strength induced bv concrete creen is close to 40%展开更多

The creep tests were conducted at 750°C, 90 and 100 MPa. In the pre-strained samples, the grain boundary shielding ratio by precipitates was larger than that of the non-pre-strained sample. In addition, in the pre-strained samples the size of the M23C6 carbide in the grains was finer than in the non-pre-strained sample. The W content in the M23C6 carbide in the pre-strained samples tended to be larger than in the non-pre-strained sample. Therefore, the Ostwald ripening of the carbide was delayed and the size of M23C6 carbide was thought to be fine for a long time. These observations show that creep strength in the pre-strained samples is higher than that of the non-pre-strained sample because of both precipitation strengthening inside of the grains and grain boundaries.展开更多
