Acoustic Emission for Evaluating the Reinforcement Effectiveness in Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete
Steel fiber reinforcement in concrete strongly enhances its ductility and toughness. This is basically due to the additional fracture mechanisms and energy used to overcome the interlocking and adhesion between the fibers and the cementitious matrix. The enhancement of the final properties is measur...
