In the Present study, attempt will be made to propose a new method for prediction of long-term essential creep of concrete utilizing some short-term creep tests under high temperature. To do so, regarding the similarities between essential creep of concrete and creep in viscoelastic materials, the time–temperature equivalence relation in viscoelastic materials is evaluated for concrete. This re...

hot or cold weather condition affects the quality of the concrete in different ways, which one of them is increase or decrease in the initial temperature of the concrete. in this study, the impact of the initial temperature of the concrete on its quality in concrete kerbs made by dry pressing method with portland cement is examined. concretes with similar mix designs and initial temperatures of...

The need to design blast resistant civilian structures has arisen due to aggressor attacks on many civilian structures around the world. Achieving vibration and wave attenuation with locally resonant metamaterials has attracted a great deal of consideration due to their frequency dependent negative effective mass density. In this paper, metaconcrete, a new material with exceptional properties i...
