Tawfek, Abdullah M. (author), Ge, Zhi (author), Yuan, Huaqiang (author), Zhang, Ning (author), Zhang, Hongzhi (author), Ling, Yifeng (author), Guan, Yanhua (author), Šavija, B. (author)The mechanical performance of engineered cementitious composite (ECC) depends greatly on fiber orientation and distribution. In this paper, the effect of fiber orientation on ECC's mechanical properties was investigated using two different casting methods: a flow-induced casting was used to enhance the fiber orientation within ECC mixture and...journal article 2023

Sun, Renjuan (author), Han, Lebing (author), Zhang, Hongzhi (author), Ge, Zhi (author), Guan, Yanhua (author), Ling, Yifeng (author), Schlangen, E. (author), Šavija, B. (author)This paper presents a study on cracking characterization of engineered cementitious composites (ECC) under flexural cyclic load using digital image correlation (DIC) technique. Five stress levels, namely 0.65, 0.75, 0.8, 0.85 and 0.9 of the flexural strength, were applied. Strain map at the side surface was obtained by DIC and used to drive...journal article 2022
