Probability of Local Liquefaction of Saturated Sands in Half-Space Domains under a Train of Surface Point Explosions by Luis A. de Béjar

“…The probability of liquefaction in saturated sand deposits subjected to a train of shear stress pulses propagating from a point blast source applied at the boundary surface of the elastic medium is investigated. The load effect is evaluated in approximate closed form using three-dimensional tensorial mathematical physics in polar cylindrical coordinates. …”

Fatigue Performance and Multiscale Mechanisms of Concrete Toughened by Polymers and Waste Rubber by Bo Chen, Liping Guo, Wei Sun

“…Furthermore, the bending fatigue lives of concrete simultaneously containing polymers and waste rubber powders are larger than those of concrete with only one type of admixtures. The multiscale physics-chemical mechanisms show that high bonding effect and high elastic modulus of polymer films as well as good elastic property and crack-resistance of waste tire-rubber powders are beneficial for improving bending toughness and fatigue life of cementitious composites.…”
