Abstract
Structure, during its design period, may face unpredictable dynamic loading: wind, earthquake, and blast. Unavoidably, loading rates impact the dynamic behaviours of structures. Besides, the infrastructure system is more susceptible to dynamic loading. Therefore, a study on the dynamic behaviour of concrete under Quasi-Static cyclic load is inevitable. Fortunately, the researchers explored that innovative materials could respond better to extreme dynamic loading. One of the serious issues is the demolition of rubber tyres, which may be solved by converting the same into crumb form as an innovative construction material. In the present study, experimental and Finite Element Method based numerical analysis shows a substantial improvement in fatigue, flexural, ductility, inelastic performance and energy dissipation capacity of the Alcofine-based crumb rubber concrete beam. These performances are observed experimentally under monotonic and Quasi-Static cyclic loads. The load-carrying capacity has also been predicted analytically; the results agree with the experimental and numerical ones.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
