Discrete Element Modeling and Electron Microscopy Investigation of Fatigue-Induced Microstructural Changes in Ultra-High-Performance Concrete

In view of the growing demand for sustainable and lightweight concrete structures, the use of ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is becoming increasingly important. However, fatigue loads occur more frequently in nature than static loads. Despite the impressive mechanical properties of UHPC, a r...
