A method for volumetric Tensor Velocity Imaging employing row-column (RC) addressed array with low computational complexity is investigated in simulations. An interleaved and non-interleaved sliding aperture sequence 11 rows columns emissions by a 62 + RC was used. The 3D velocities were estimated transverse oscillation (TO) cross-correlation estimator. Parabolic profiles at six different orien...

The aim of this study is to investigate the influence fiber reinforcement polymer (FRP) on shear behavior concrete (RC) beams with various guidelines. FRP thickness, beam depth and strength at ultimate load are considered as main parameters. A finite element (FE) by using ANSYS computer program was used analyze reinforced beams. numerical models were effect depth, strength, CFRP sheet configura...

Deteriorated concrete cover, e.g., spalling or delamination, especially when it occurs at the web of a reinforced (RC) beam within shear span, can reduce capacity beam. Patching this deteriorated area may be best option to recover affected. For purpose, unsaturated polyester resin mortar (UPR mortar) has been formulated. This research aims investigate efficacy UPR in limiting cracking and so re...

This investigation aims to study the flexural behaviour of reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened with near-surface mounted (NSM) carbon fibre polymer prestressed prisms (CFRP-PCPs). Eight RC were tested under monotonic loading until failure load was reached. One beam un-strengthened act as a control beam. The other seven non-prestressed or NSM CFRP-PCPs. effects bond length, prestress lev...

Horizontal stirrups are normally required in reinforced concrete (RC) beam-column joints (BCJs) for resisting shear forces seismic design. For RC moment-resisting frames subjected to a high lateral load, large number of needed joint cores. This may cause reinforcement congestion, leading construction difficulty and insufficient compaction, which can result poor performance. In this study, novel...
