Investigation of Spalling Damage in Ultra-High Performance Concrete Through X-ray Computed Tomography

Ultra-high performance concretes (UHPC) are increasingly used to build protective structures such as headquarters, nuclear power plants or critical civil engineering structures. However, under impact or contact detonation, concrete is exposed to high-rate tensile loadings that can lead to intense da...
