Fractional calculus, i.e. the theory of derivatives and integrals of non-integer order, can be efficiently used for the theoretical modelling of viscoelastic materials. Our research is focused on the polyvinyl butyral which is used as an interlayer for the laminated glass. Polyvinyl butyral can be classified as a viscoelastic material and the introduction of the fractional viscoelasticity seems to be appropriate tool for its description. This paper briefly introduces the springpot element and its connection into more complex theoretical models. We mainly consider the generalized Maxwell model in its standard and fractional form and show their application by fitting the data obtained by experimental analysis.

Abrupt collapse events that result in casualties due to failure of load-bearing structures have been reported in recent years. Continuous remote monitoring of these structures, assessing the behavior under operational load, could provide a reliable prevention, as the developing damage manifests itself through a loss of stiffness, and therefore excessive deflections. Digital image correlation (DIC) algorithms based on fast Fourier transform (FFT) were implemented in a small computer unit Raspberry Pi, capable of remote operation in a low-energy demand mode. The unit is fully autonomous, capable of localizing QR code targets and extracting encoded information. This strategy allows us to instantly evaluate displacements of QR codes attached to any surface and send the data to a server. The software was developed in Python, allowing for two modes: the online mode for current data evaluation with information transfer via the MQTT protocol and the offline mode used for retrospective evaluation.

Glued laminated timber beams exposed to fire of a variable duration were tested in three point bending. Three types of model geometries taking into account the effect of burning were created. Each model was examined for five material data sets. The maximum deflection obtained from FEM simulations was compared with the corresponding deflection wel derived from a three point bending test of burnt beams. The analysis was performed with the help of Ansys® software limiting attention to a liner elasticity with the maximum applied force Fel selected at the proportionality limit observed experimentally. Majority of FEM models provided smaller deflections compared to measurements except for the material set adopting Young’s moduli from the compression test. The best fit was observed for the material data set obtained from homogenization. No predominant preference among individual geometries was found promoting the computational model based on reduced cross-section as sufficiently accurate.

The topic of this paper is an experimental analysis of the dynamic behaviour of stays of an existing footbridge focusing on determination of the tensile forces in stays. The examined structure was the footbridge across the Vltava river in Lužec nad Vltavou. It is a cable-stayed footbridge, the horizontal load-bearing structure consists of UHPC components, which are prestressed by a pair of external cables. The horizontal load-bearing structure is suspended on a 39.85 m high A-shaped steel pylon by means of a system of 17 pairs of stays. As a part of the work the tensile forces in stays were determined using the vibration frequency method. The method is based on the knowledge of natural frequencies of the stays, which were investigated by the experimental analysis.

The present paper revisits a stress update procedure for the Hoek-Brown plasticity model enhanced by a Rankine type of tension cut-off failure criterion. Limiting tensile stresses not only supports the behavior of weak rock masses with a very low tensile strength but in combination with the original Hoek-Brown model improves robustness of the stress update procedure, i.e. the stress return mapping algorithm. Herein, the primary focus is on the stress return from a space of inadmissible trial stresses for which neither the Hoek-Brown yield surface nor its derivative can be evaluated. All potential scenarios are thoroughly discussed both in the framework of single- and multi-surface plasticity. The presented procedures were implemented and verified with the help of the Geo5 FEM software.

The effect of atmospheric and low-pressure plasma modification on polypropylene (PP) microfibers was examined. Mechanical changes on the microfiber surfaces were observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Next, wettability was measured using the packed-cell method. The fibers were applied into a cement matrix containing micro-milled recycled concrete. Test specimens were made and then the dynamic modulus of elasticity was continuously measured. After 28 days were made in the test specimens central notches to a depth of 14 mm. Finally, bending tests were performed. From the results, the fracture energy of the composite material was calculated. It was proven that low-pressure plasma modification as well as atmospheric plasma modification increases the wettability of PP fibers with water. Furthermore, it was found that samples containing plasma-modified microfibers have a higher fracture energy compared to the same samples with fibers without plasma modification. Conversely, plasma modification had no effect on the dynamic modulus of elasticity.

Mold growth in indoor interiors is an increasing problem that has adverse effects on both occupants and building materials. The aim of this study was to present the new environmentally friendly method (cold atmospheric plasma treatment) for decontamination of indoor environments contaminated by mold spores, with the potential to become an effective replacement for conventional methods, such as ultraviolet-C (UV-C) germicidal irradiation. The spores of Aspergillus species on malt extract agar plates were exposed to plasma produced by diffuse coplanar surface barrier discharge. The surface coverage of mold was evaluated using image analysis. Cold plasma treatment inactivated spores on the surface of the culture medium in 0.5 min, whereas a weak growth delay was observed after 30 minute exposure to UV-C irradiation. This study demonstrated that cold atmospheric plasma is a more effective method for reducing mold spores on agar compared with germicidal UV-C irradiation.
霉菌在室内的生长是一个日益严重的问题,对居住者和建筑材料都有不利影响。本研究的目的是提出一种新的环境友好型方法(冷大气等离子体处理),用于去除霉菌孢子污染的室内环境,有可能成为传统方法的有效替代,如紫外线- c (UV-C)杀菌照射。将麦芽浸膏琼脂平板上的曲霉孢子暴露于弥漫性共面表面阻挡放电产生的等离子体中。利用图像分析对模具表面覆盖度进行了评价。冷等离子体处理在0.5分钟内使培养基表面的孢子灭活,而在UV-C照射30分钟后观察到微弱的生长延迟。本研究表明,与杀菌紫外- c照射相比,低温常压等离子体是一种更有效的方法来减少琼脂上的霉菌孢子。

The VERCORS program aims to acquire an extensive experimental dataset collected to provide a solid basis for numerical modeling of concrete containment buildings (CCBs). In order to cover the entire life-span of a real containment, the measurements are done on 3× smaller mock-up which leads to 9-fold acceleration of all processes related to drying. The goal for the participants of the third VERCORS benchmark was to predict the behaviour of the CCB based on standard laboratory measurements on VERCORS concrete. The previous paper [1] presented the calibration procedure of material models for moisture transport and time-dependent behavior of concrete and summarized the results obtained with a computationally efficient low-fidelity model (LFM). The present paper compares the responses of the LFM and a high-fidelity model (HFM) with a detailed geometry of the entire containment and presents a comparison with the experimental data collected over the last 8 years on the VERCORS mockup.

The construction industry is one of the main sources of greenhouse gas emissions, and portland cement production is responsible for approximately 8 % of anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Microbially induced calcium precipitation (MICP) has the potential to partially replace cement or modify the properties of materials that would otherwise not find use in construction, for example, in concrete recycling. MICP might be an environmentally friendly method to improve the properties of recycled aggregates and form conglomerates from the finest fractions. In this paper, factors influencing MICP’s ability to solidify recycled concrete fines are thoroughly investigated. Calcium carbonate precipitate crystals produced by the bacterium Sporosarcina pasteurii were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy.

The paper describes the influence of electric current on the porosity of concrete samples after electrically accelerated tests and other electrokinetic treatments. Three different concrete mixtures consisting of CEM I 42.5R, CEM II / A-M(S-LL) 42.5R, and CEM I 42.5R with 10 % replacement of cement by microsilica were examined. Direct current (DC) test was performed on fully saturated samples. The samples were loaded with a constant voltage of 20 V for 24 hours in chambers filled with NaOH solution. The changes in porosity were examined using mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and open porosity (OP). The results of open porosity indicate an increase in porosity for all mixtures measurements of ∼0.6 %–2 % for treated samples. The MIP showed increase of volume of pores with radius smaller than 0.01 μm after DC test. According to X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) there was ∼2 % less calcite after DC test.
本文介绍了电加速试验和其他电动力学处理后,电流对混凝土试样孔隙率的影响。研究了CEM I 42.5R、CEM II / A-M(S-LL) 42.5R和CEM I 42.5R三种不同的混凝土混合物,其中微二氧化硅替代水泥的比例为10%。在完全饱和的样品上进行直流试验。样品在充满NaOH溶液的室中以20 V恒定电压加载24小时。利用压汞孔隙度法(MIP)、扫描电镜(SEM)和开放孔隙度(OP)检测孔隙度的变化。开放孔隙度的结果表明,在处理过的样品中,所有混合物的孔隙度测量值都增加了~ 0.6% - 2%。经直流试验,MIP中半径小于0.01 μm的孔隙体积增大。根据x射线衍射(XRD)和热重分析(TGA),直流试验后方解石减少了~ 2%。
