The pullout test specimens were subjected to temperatures of 40℃, 60℃ and 80℃ during a continuous four months-period of time. The results were compared to the reference specimens (room temperature). It was found that up to 60℃, the loss in bond strength due to the temperature is not significant, whereas for the 80℃-temperature a reduction of 14% in the bond strength is observed. Also, the bond-slip relationship was modelled using the CMR-model and new coefficients are proposed for the bond-slip behaviour of GFRP bars.展开更多

The problem of two-dimensional motion of biviscosity fluid privileged in a symmetric channel with ciliated walls is considered. The features of ciliary structures are resolute by the supremacy of viscous effects above inertial possessions by the long-wavelength and low Reynolds approximation. Closed-form solutions for the longitudinal pressure gradient, temperature and velocities are obtained. The pressure gradient and volume flow rate for different values of the biviscosity are also premeditated. The flow possessions for the biviscosity fluid resolute as a function of the cilia and metachronal wave velocity.展开更多

Different wave amplitudes and phases ensure asymme- try in the channel flow configuration. Simultaneous effects of heat and mass transfer are also considered. Viscous dissipation effect is present. The flow and heat transfer are investigated under long wavelength and low Reynolds number assumption. The expres- sions for stream function, axial velocity, temperature and concentration are obtained. The solution expressions for physical quantities are sketched and discussed. It is found that Brinkman and Hartman numbers have reverse effect on the temperature.展开更多
