Methodology of Evaluating Elastic Modulus of Cement Mortar Corroded in Brine

Experimental Investigation of Toughness Enhancement in Cement Mortar

This paper presents the results of investigation carried out to improve the mechanical toughness of cement mortar. Toughness is a basic parameter which has to be improved in brick walls, concrete roads, machine foundations, dams etc. Materials fails due to an impact force and vibrations resulting in minor cracks and bonding failure between bricks, it leads to failure of the structure. In order ...

Modulus of elastic pdf

The modulus of elasticity Youngs modulus E is a material property, that. From the Hooks law the modulus of elasticity is defined as the ratio of the stress to.modulus of elasticity of the cultured SC cells examined in this study, in central, non-nuclear regions, ranged between. Johnson B.all require an effective E, the Youngs modulus or elastic modulus, to quantify. Elastic moduli, such as the ...

Elastic modulus of viral nanotubes.

We report an experimental and theoretical study of the radial elasticity of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) nanotubes. An atomic force microscope tip is used to apply small radial indentations to deform TMV nanotubes. The initial elastic response of TMV nanotubes can be described by finite-element analysis in 5nm indentation depths and Hertz theory in 1.5nm indentation depths. The derived radial You...

Utilization of waste glass as sand replacement in cement mortar

In this study, alkali silica reaction (ASR) expansion and strength characteristics of mortar containing waste glasses are analyzed in terms of waste glass content and glass color. Three different colors of waste glasses (white, green and brown) are replaced with sand at ratios of 10%, 30% and 100% by weight. The mixtures used in this study did not show a considerable ASR expansion. All batches ...
