ABSTRACTThe experimental technique of electromechanical pull-out testing is introduced to study the interface between fiber and matrix. The technique involves measuring both the contact electrical resistivity and the shear bond strength of a fiber-matrix interface. Samples that are identically prepared differ in contact resistivity and bond strength, which correlate. The correlation allows determination of even small differences in bond strength due to differences in sample preparation conditions. It also gives information on the structure of the interface and allows the bond strength to be nondestructively determined by measuring the contact resistivity. The technique is demonstrated for the interface between steel fiber and cement.

Here, we show that when the oxidation treatment temperature exceeded 600°C, the tensile strength of SiC/SiC begins to decrease. Oxidation leads to the damages on the PyC fiber/matrix interface, which is replaced by SiO2 at higher temperature. The fracture mode converts from fiber pull-out to fiber-break as the fiber/matrix interface is filled with SiO2. Oxidation time also plays an important role in affecting the tensile strength of SiC/SiC. The tensile modulus decreases with temperature from RT to 800°C, then increases above 800°C due to the decomposition of remaining CSi x O y and crystallization of the SiC matrix. A special surface densification treatment performed in this study is confirmed to be an effective approach to reduce the oxidation damages and improve the tensile strength of SiC/SiC after oxidation.

Abstract In selecting methods for determination of rubber to cord bond strength it is necessary to consider the factors which are subject to variation in the system— the type of cord, the composition of the vulcanized rubber, or the composition of the impregnant. The selection (composition) of the methods of assessment of bond strength was carried out in the present study while keeping the type of cord and the rubber compositions constant ; only the composition of the impregnant was varied. Up to the present there has been no single laboratory method for evaluating rubber to cord bond strength for the determination of the service quality of rubber-fabric structures. The bond strength in such a system is assessed in the majority of cases by the use of a series of methods. The existing methods may be systematized according to the nature of the deformation (static or dynamic), the nature of the specimen (with single thread of cord or with cord fabric) and so on. We adopted the following classification of methods: 1). Determination of bond strength of a single thread of cord with the rubber; 2). Determination of bond strength of rubber to fabric model specimens. Determination of bond strength of a single thread of cord with rubber is an exceptionally widely used type of testing in the rubber industry. It is based either on the principle of stripping of a single thread of cord from the rubber under pressure, or on the principle of pull-out of a thread of cord from a rubber specimen.

The main objective of this study is to derive an analytical model for the pullout behavior of hooked-end steel fiber. The pullout behavior of hooked-end steel fiber comprises a component due to interfacial bond stress at the fiber–matrix interface and a component due to mechanical anchorage at the hook end of the fiber. To study the first component, the effects of hooks on the distributions of the force and stresses along the fiber length are analyzed. Then these results are used, with the concept of bond shear stress versus slip relation between fiber and matrix, to obtain a force component due to the interfacial bond. After that the required theoretical relations are obtained to determine the component due to the mechanical anchorages. Finally, the model is validated with two existing experimental results on the hooked-end steel fiber pullout. The results show that the proposed model is able to estimate the pullout behavior of hooked-end steel fiber.

AbstractThis paper explores the behavior of the interface of glass fiber and cementitious matrix under the effect of aging. Pull-out tests of multiple alkali resistant glass fiber strands embedded in portland cement paste matrix were conducted. Four different curing regimes of 3 and 14 days normal curing, in addition to 3 and 7 days accelerated aging were employed. A recently developed method of characterizing interfacial properties was used to identify and evaluate the important parameters at interface. The experimental data are presented on the parameter of shear stiffness of a fiber-matrix boundary layer, the shear bond strength, the frictional bond strength and the specific surface energy as a function of fiber embedded length. It was observed that aging had a larger effect on the stiffness of the interface, the shear bond strength and the specific surface energy than on the frictional bond.
