Abstract
Welded steel plates are widely used in various structural applications, and the presence of inclined welds is often encountered in practical scenarios. Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) has been proven to be effective for strengthening steel structures. However, the behavior of CFRP-strengthened welded steel plates with inclined welds, particularly considering the influence of welding residual stress, is limited. This paper aims to investigate the tensile behavior of CFRP-strengthened welded Q355 steel plates with inclined welds considering welding residual stress (WRS). First, WRS data were obtained by the X-ray diffraction (XRD) method at different locations. The maximum tensile and compressive residual stresses are 0.39 and 0.14 times the yield strength of the steel, respectively. Then, finite element models were established to investigate the effects of weld angles, weld width, and height on the WRS distribution of welded steel plates. Finally, the tensile performance of CFRP-strengthened welded plates with WRS was studied by numerical simulation. The results showed that the weld angles have little effect on the distribution pattern of residual stress but significantly affect the peak tensile WRS. When the weld angle changes from 0° to 60°, the peak tensile WRS decreases significantly from 0.32 to 0.06 times the yield strength of steel; furthermore, the influence of weld width and height on WRS is relatively limited. Under tension loading, the maximum stress occurs near the weld. The ends of the weld enter the yielding state later than the middle part of the weld due to the distribution of the WRS. As the weld angle increases and the length of the weld increases, the stress in the weld zone decreases, while the stress in the base material zone correspondingly increases. In addition, CFRP strengthening can reduce the magnitude of stress. This study provides preliminary references for understanding the tensile behavior of CFRP-strengthened welded steel plates with inclined welds.

Abstract
This study explores the impact of resin-missing defects on the mechanical properties of composite laminates through experimental and finite element methods. Specimens with varying defect contents (5.3%, 8.0%, 10.7%, 13.3%, and 16.7%) were prepared via Vacuum Assistant Resin Infusion process. Experimental tests were conducted with the assistance of Digital Image Correlation measurements to illustrate the impact of resin-missing defects on failure characteristics. The experimental results indicate that the existence of resin-missing defects altered the stress distribution, increased the local stress, and reduced the tensile strength of the composite laminate. The DIC results indicate that the presence of defects weakens the matrix, leading to premature damage and deterioration. Numerical modeling with a progressive damage analysis method was developed to simulate the failure process and the influence of the resin-missing defects. The simulation results agree well with the experimental results, and the maximum error was 3.06%. The failure modes obtained from finite elements are consistent with the experimental and DIC results. Furthermore, a study was conducted on how the location of resin-missing defects affects the mechanical properties of composite laminates. The findings suggest that defects situated at the edges or on the surface of the material have a more significant impact on the tensile strength.

Abstract
The mechanisms of serrated flow and microstructural evolution in MarBN steel were studied under two strain rates (5 × 10-3 s-1 and 5 × 10-5 s-1) at room temperature and high temperatures (430 °C and 630 °C). The experimental results show that the type-C serrations occurred at all temperatures under a high strain rate of 5 × 10-3 s-1. In contrast, type-B serrations occurred at 430 °C and 630 °C under a low strain rate of 5 × 10-3 s-1, indicating that the type of serrated flow was related to the strain rate. The microstructural results reveal that pinning and unpinning dislocation under both strain rates were responsible for the serrations at both strain rates.

Abstract
To study the fatigue failure and microstructure evolution behavior of SS304, low-cycle fatigue tests are conducted at room temperature (RT), 300 °C, and 650 °C. The results indicate that, because of the influence of the dislocation walls, carbon-containing precipitates, and deformation twins, the cyclic hardening behavior is presented at RT. However, different from the cyclic hardening behavior at RT, the cyclic softening behavior of SS304 can be observed due to the dynamic recovery and recrystallization containing dislocation rearrangement and annihilation at 300 °C and 650 °C. In addition, two fatigue crack initiation modes are observed. At RT, the single fatigue crack initiation mode is observed. At high temperatures, multiple crack initiation modes are presented, resulting from the degradation of material properties. Furthermore, a new fatigue life prediction model considering the temperature is conducted as a reference for industrial applications.

Abstract
Glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) rebars are commonly used as an alternative to conventional steel reinforcement in a variety of structural applications due to their superior low cost, strength-to-weight ratio, and durability. However, their mechanical properties after exposure to elevated temperatures, particularly in fire-prone environments, remain a significant concern. To address this concern, the present study focuses on investigating the residual tensile behavior, specifically the tensile strength and elastic modulus, of GFRP rebars exposed to high temperatures that are realistically encountered during fire incidents. The temperature range considered in this analysis spans from 100 °C to 400 °C, with a heating rate of 20 °C/min. The fire duration of 1 h is used. This comprehensive analysis is essential for enhancing our understanding of the performance and applicability of GFRP rebars in fire-prone environments. Based on their actual application in the construction industry, five specimens of three different rebar sizes (16, 20, and 25 mm) were examined for the effect of rebar size on tensile behavior after fire exposure. In addition, the effects were investigated of air- and water-cooling methods on residual tensile behavior. The nominal tensile strength, elastic modulus, and ultimate strain of GFRP rebars at ambient temperature are 930 MPa, 50.2 GPa and 1.85%, respectively. The test results indicated that as the temperature increased to 400 °C, the ultimate tensile strength of the GFRP bars decreased by up to 55%, while the ultimate strain increased by up to 44%, regardless of the cooling method. In addition, when rebars of sizes 16-25 mm were subjected to a 400 °C fire treatment, the smaller the rebar, the greater the percentage of ultimate tensile and strain reduction. These findings hold great significance for the utilization of GFRP bars within the construction industry. This study offers valuable insights into the design of fire-resilient structures, emphasizing the importance of considering rebar size and cooling methods due to their impact on the post-fire tensile strength and strain of GFRP rebars.

Abstract
Strain-Hardening Cement-Based Composites (SHCCs) exhibit high toughness and durability, allowing the design of resilient structures. Despite the exceptional properties of SHCC and the current modeling techniques, the widespread use of the composite is limited. One limiting factor is developing and validating analytical models that could be used for optimizing mixes and designing structural elements. Furthermore, the composite mechanical response is complex and depends on several phenomena, such as fiber pullout, fiber orientation and distribution, size effect, fiber content, group effect, embedding length, fiber dimensions, and matrix strength. In this context, this research presents the state-of-the-art on the micro- and mesomechanisms occurring in SHCC during cracking and robust techniques to predict its tensile behavior accounting for such phenomena already proved experimentally. The study is relevant for designers and the scientific community because it presents the gaps for the research groups to develop new investigations for consolidating SHCC, which is a material to produce resilient structures.

Abstract
The effect of strain rate and temperature on the thermomechanical behavior and microstructure of MarBN steel is studied with the strain rates of 5 × 10-3 and 5 × 10-5 s-1 from room temperature (RT) to 630 °C. At high strain rates of 5 × 10-3 s-1, the Holloman and Ludwigson equations can better predict tensile plastic properties. In contrast, under low strain rates of 5 × 10-5 s-1, coupling of the Voce and Ludwigson equations appears to predict the flow relationship at RT, 430, and 630 °C. However, the deformation microstructures have the same evolution behavior under strain rates and temperatures. Geometrically necessary dislocations appear along the grain boundaries and increase the dislocation density, which results in the formation of the low-angle grain boundaries and a decrease in the number of twinning. The strengthening sources of MarBN steel include grain boundary strengthening, dislocation interactions, and multiplication. The fitted R2 values of these models (JC, KHL, PB, VA, ZA) to plastic flow stress at 5 × 10-5 s-1 are greater than 5 × 10-3 s-1 for MarBN steel. Due to the flexibility and minimum fitting parameters, the phenomenological models of JC (RT and 430 °C) and KHL (630 °C) give the best prediction accuracy under both strain rates.

Abstract
The purpose of this research was to analyze polymer materials based on mechanical properties and geometrical parameters, such as the smallest material deviations and the best printing texture after three-dimensional (3D) printing in two methods of Material Jetting technology: PolyJet and MultiJet. This study covers checks for Vero Plus, Rigur, Durus, ABS, and VisiJet M2R-WT materials. Thirty flat specimens were printed both for 0 and 90 raster orientations. Specimen scans were superimposed on the 3D model from CAD software. Each of them was tested, paying attention to the accuracy and the layer thickness effect of printed components. Then, all specimens were subjected to tensile tests. The obtained data-Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio-were compared using statistical methods, focusing on the two most important parameters: the isotropy of the printed material in two directions and the characteristics close to linear. It was found that unitary surface deviation with general dimensional accuracy equal to ±0.1 mm was the common feature of printed models. Some small areas had lower accuracy depending on the material and printer device. Rigur material obtained the highest mechanical properties. Dimensional accuracy in Material Jetting technology as a function of layer parameters such as layer thickness and raster orientation was checked. The materials were checked in terms of relative isotropy and linearity. Additionally, similarities and differences between PolyJet and MultiJet methods were covered.

Abstract
The uniaxial tensile behavior of MarBN steel with a constant strain rate of 5 × 10-5 s-1 under various temperatures ranging from room temperature to 630 °C was analyzed. This study aimed to identify the effect of the temperature on the tensile behavior and to understand the microstructure deformation by electron backscatter diffraction. The tensile results showed that the yield and ultimate tensile strength decreased with increasing temperature. Serrated flow was observed from 430 °C to 630 °C. The electron backscatter diffraction analysis showed that the low-angle grain boundaries decreased at the medium deformation and increased at the maximum deformation. In contrast, they decreased with increasing temperatures. In addition, the number of voids increased with the increasing plastic strain. As the strain increased, the voids joined together, and the tiny cracks became larger and failed. Three mechanisms were responsible for the tensile deformation failure at various temperatures: grain rotation, the formation and rearrangement of low angle grain boundaries, and void nucleation and propagation. Finally, the formation of the low-angle grain boundaries and voids under different degrees of deformation is discussed.

Abstract
The synthesis of x-wt.% (where x = 2.5, 5, 7.5, and 10) TiB2-reinforced titanium matrix was accomplished through the spark plasma sintering technique (SPS). The sintered bulk samples were characterized, and their mechanical properties were evaluated. Near full density was attained, with the sintered sample having the least relative density of 97.5%. This indicates that the SPS process aids good sinterability. The Vickers hardness of the consolidated samples improved from 188.1 HV1 to 304.8 HV1, attributed to the high hardness of the TiB2. The tensile strength and elongation of the sintered samples decreased with increasing TiB2 content. The nano hardness and reduced elastic modulus of the consolidated samples were upgraded due to the addition of TiB2, with the Ti-7.5 wt.% TiB2 sample showing the maximum values of 9841 MPa and 188 GPa, respectively. The microstructures display the dispersion of whiskers and in-situ particles, and the X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) showed new phases. Furthermore, the presence of TiB2 particles in the composites enhanced better wear resistance than the unreinforced Ti sample. Due to dimples and large cracks, ductile and brittle fracture behavior was noticed in the sintered composites.

Abstract
The modeling of the mechanical behavior of Fabric Reinforced Cementitious Matrix (FRCM) composites is a difficult task due to the complex mechanisms established at the fibre-matrix and composite-support interface level. Recently, several modeling approaches have been proposed to simulate the mechanical response of FRCM strengthening systems, however a simple and reliable procedure is still missing. In this paper, two simplified numerical models are proposed to simulate the tensile and shear bond behavior of FRCM composites. Both models take advantage of truss and non-linear spring elements to simulate the material components and the interface. The proposed approach enables us to deduce the global mechanical response in terms of stress-strain or stress-slip relations. The accuracy of the proposed models is validated against the experimental benchmarks available in the literature.

Abstract
Complex yarns with helical wrapping structure show auxetic effect under axial tension and a wide perspective application. Experimental results suggested that initial helical angle was one of the most important structural parameters. However, the experimental method was limited and could not effectively explain the deformation behavior or auxetic mechanism. A finite element model of the helical auxetic yarn was built and used to analyze the interactive relationship between the two components and the stress distribution mode. The effectiveness and accuracy of the model was first verified by comparing with the experimental results. The simulation results showed that the complex yarn with initial helical angle of 14.5° presented the maximum negative Poisson's ratio of -2.5 under 5.0% axial strain. Both the contact property between the two components and the radial deformability of the elastic core filament were key factors of the auxetic property. When the contact surfaces were completely smooth and the friction coefficient μ was set to 0, the complex yarn presented non-auxetic behavior. When the Poisson's ratio of the core filament was 0, the complex yarn showed greater auxetic effect. During the axial stretching, the tensile stress was mainly distributed in the wrap filament, which led to structural deformation and auxetic behavior. A pair of auxetic yarns showed pore effect and high expansion under axial strain. Thus, it may be necessary to consider new weaving structures and preparation methods to obtain the desired auxetic property and application of auxetic yarns.

Abstract
The clevis-grip tensile test is usually employed to evaluate the mechanical properties of textile reinforced concrete (TRC) composites, which is actually a bond test and is unsuitable for determining reliable design parameters. Thus, the clevis-grip tensile test needs further improvement to obtain foreseeable results concerning TRC tensile behavior. This paper presents the experimental results of twenty-one tension tests performed on basalt TRC (BTRC) thin plates with different test setups, i.e., clevis-grip and improved clevis-grip, and with different textile ratios. The influences of test setups and textile ratios on crack patterns, failure mode, and tensile stress-strain curves with characteristic parameters were analyzed in depth to judge the feasibility of the new test setup. The results indicated that with the new test setup, BTRC composites exhibited textile rupture at failure; in addition, multi-cracks occurred to the BTRC composites as the textile ratio exceeded 1.44%. In this case, the obtained results relied on textile properties, which can be considered reliable for design purposes. The modified ACK model with a textile utilization rate of 50% provided accurate predictions for the tensile stress-strain behavior of the BTRC composite derived from the improved test setup. The proposed test setup enables the adequate utilization of BTRC composite and the reliability of obtained results related to the occurrence of textile rupture; nevertheless, further work is required to better understand the key parameters affecting the textile utilization rate, such as the strength of the concrete matrix.

Abstract
To reduce harmful gas emission and improve the operational efficiency, advanced ultra-supercritical power plants put forward higher requirements on the high temperature mechanical properties of applied materials. In this paper, the tensile behavior and deformation mechanisms of MarBN steel are discussed at different strain rates (5 × 10-3 s-1, 5 × 10-4 s-1, and 5 × 10-5 s-1) under room temperature and 630 °C. The results show that the tensile behavior of the alloy is dependent on temperature and strain rate, which derived from the balance between the average dislocation velocity and dislocation density. Furthermore, observed dynamic recrystallized grains under severe deformation reveal the existence of dynamic recovery at 630 °C, which increases the elongation compared to room temperature. Finally, three typical constitutive equations are used to quantitatively describe the tensile deformation behavior of MarBN steel under different strain rates and temperatures. Meanwhile, the constitutive model of flow stress for MarBN steel is developed based on the hyperbolic sine law.

Abstract
The unique microstructure of the alloy AlSi10Mg produced by the laser-based powder bed fusion of metals (PBF-LB/M) provides high-strength and high-strain-hardening capabilities of the material. The microstructure and mechanical properties of 3D-printed, i.e., additively manufactured, AlSi10Mg are significantly altered by post-building heat-treatment processes applied in order to tailor the final properties of the parts. Using an accurate computational model to predict and improve the mechanical performance of 3D-printed samples considering their microstructural features can accelerate their employment in envisaged applications. The present study aims to investigate the correlation between microstructural features and the mechanical behavior of as-built, direct-aged, and T6 heat-treated samples of PBF-LB/M AlSi10Mg under tensile loading using experiment and microstructure-sensitive modeling approaches. Nanoindentation tests are used to calibrate the parameters of the constitutive models for the Al and Si-rich phases. The experimental investigations revealed that heat treatment significantly changes the sub-grain morphology of the Si-rich phase, and this can have a considerable effect on the mechanical behavior of the components. The effect of the modeling of the Si-rich phase in the representative volume elements on the prediction of mechanical behavior is investigated using the J2 plasticity model. The combination of the crystal plasticity model for Al and the J2 plasticity model for the Si-rich phase is used to predict the tensile properties of the as-built and heat-treated states. The predicted results are in good agreement with the experimental results. This approach can be used to understand the microstructure-property relationship of PBF-LB/M AlSi10Mg and eventually tailor heat treatment for PBF-LB/M AlSi10Mg based on the requirement of the application.

Abstract
The tensile stress–strain response is considered to be the most important and fundamental mechanical property of ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC). Nevertheless, it is still a challenging matter for researchers to determine the tensile properties of UHPFRC. As a simpler alternative to the direct tensile test, bending tests are widely performed to characterize the tensile behavior of UHPFRC, but require further consideration and a sophisticated inverse analysis procedure. In order to efficiently predict the tensile properties of UHPFRC, a nonlinear inverse method based on notched three-point bending tests (3PBT) was proposed in this paper. A total of fifteen UHPFRC beams were fabricated and tested to evaluate the sensitivity of the predicted tensile behavior to variations in fiber volume fraction. A segmented stress–strain model was used, which is capable of describing the various tensile properties of UHPFRC, including strain softening and strain hardening. A more approximate formulation was adopted to simulate the load–deflection response of UHPFRC beam specimens. The closed-form analytical solutions were validated by tensile test results and existing methods in literature. Finally, parametric studies were also conducted to investigate the robustness of the proposed method. The load–deflection responses obtained from notched 3PBT could be easily converted into tensile properties with this inverse method.

Abstract
In the present study, fiber-reinforced plastics (FRP) grid-reinforced concrete with very rapid hardening polymer (VRHP) mortar composites were fabricated using three types of design methods for the FRP grid (hand lay-up method, resin infusion method, and prepreg oven vacuum bagging method), along with two types of fibers (carbon fiber and glass fiber) and two types of sheets (fabric and prepreg). The FRP grid was prepared by cutting the FRP laminates into a 10 mm thick, 50 mm × 50 mm grid. The tensile behavior of the FRP grid embedded in composites was systematically analyzed in terms of the load extension, fracture mode, partial tensile strain, and load-bearing rate. The CFRP grid manufactured by the prepreg OVB method showed the best tensile behavior compared to the CFRP grid manufactured by the hand lay-up and resin infusion methods. The load-bearing of each grid point was proportional to the height from the load-bearing part when reaching the maximum tensile load. In addition, finite element analysis was conducted to compare the experimental and analysis results.

Abstract
This paper presents the results of a comparative evaluation of the tensile strength behaviors of parts obtained by additive manufacturing using fused filament fabrication (FFF) technology. The study investigated the influences of the deposition printing parameters for both polymers and fiber-reinforced polymers. Polymeric materials that are widely used in FFF were selected, including acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), polylactic acid (PLA), and nylon. Carbon and glass continuous fibers were used to reinforce the nylon matrix in composite materials. The study utilized two manufacturing methods. Polymers were manufactured using an Ultimaker 2 Extended+ device and the fiber-reinforced polymer specimens were obtained using a Markforged Mark Two printer. The entire set of specimens was eventually subjected to destructive monoaxial tensile tests to measure their responses. The main goal of this study was to estimate the effect of the different infill patterns applied (zig-zag, concentric, and four different orientations lines) on the mechanical properties of pure thermoplastic materials and reinforced polymers. Results show a spectacular increase in the tensile stress at break, which for polymers reaches an average value of 27.53 MPa compared to 94.51 MPa in the case of composites (increase of 70.87%). A similar increase occurs in the case of tensile stress at yield with values of 31.87 MPa and 105.98 MPa, respectively, which represents an increase of 69.93%. The influence of the infill of the fiber is decisive, reaching, in the 0-0 arrangement, mean values of 220.18 MPa for tensile stress at break and 198.26 MPa for tensile stress at yield.

Abstract
Tensile deformation behavior and microstructure of nickel-base superalloy Inconel 625 are investigated under different strain rates of 5 × 10-4 s-1 and 5 × 10-5 s-1. According to the experimental results, yield strength and ultimate tensile strength of the alloy increase with the increase in strain rate in room temperature. Microstructure results indicate that the size of dimples is smaller in the tensile fracture surface at low strain rate than the high strain rate, and the number of dimples is also related to the strain rates and twins appear earlier in the specimens with higher strain rates. Apart from Hollomon and Ludwik functions, a new formula considering the variation trend of strength in different deformation stages is deduced and introduced, which fit closer to the tensile curves of the 625 alloy used in the present work at both strain rates. Furthermore, the Schmid factors of tensile samples under two strain rates are calculated and discussed. In the end, typical work hardening behavior resulting from the dislocations slip behavior under different strain rates is observed, and a shearing phenomenon of slip lines cross through the δ precipitates due to the movement of dislocations is also be note.

Abstract
A study on the strength of ceramic fiber bundles based on experimental and computational procedures is presented. Tests were performed on single filaments and bundles composed of two fibers with different nominal fiber counts. A method based on fiber rupture signals was developed to estimate the amount of filament rupture during the test. Through this method, the fiber bundle true strength was determined and its variation with the initial fiber count observed. By using different load-sharing models and the single filament data as input parameter, simulations were also developed to verify this behavior. Through different approaches between experiments and simulations, it was noted that the fiber bundle true strength increased with the fiber count. Moreover, a variation of the fibers' final proportion in the bundles relative to the initial amount was verified in both approaches. Finally, discussions on the influence of different load-sharing models on the results are presented.

Abstract
This paper presents a study of the effect of a superabsorbent polymer (SAP) for autogenous shrinkage control on the uniaxial tensile behavior of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC). The use of fibers and SAP potentially increases the durability of the concrete, preventing cracking by autogenous shrinkage and enhancing post-cracking behavior. Furthermore, SAP can provide further hydration for self-healing purposes and improve the ductility of the SFRC. In order to evaluate the effect of the addition of SAP in SFRC, dog-bone SFRC specimens with different dosages of superabsorbent polymers were cast and tested under uniaxial tension. The digital image correlation (DIC) technique was used to understand the effect of SAP on the steel fibers’ crack-bridging mechanisms. Surface strains and crack openings were inferred using the DIC technique. The effect of SAP and fibers on fresh and hardened concrete was individually investigated by flow tests and compressive strength tests. Autogenous shrinkage was measured in plain concrete to investigate the minimum SAP content required to mitigate autogenous shrinkage of 0.3%. The use of 0.3% SAP was also sufficient to reach multiple cracking behavior. This content of SAP completely suppressed the autogenous shrinkage with minimal side effects on compressive strength. An analytical formulation for the tensile behavior of SFRC was developed using the variable engagement model, presenting a mean correlation of R2 of 0.97 with the experimental results.

Abstract
The primary goal of this study was to investigate the monotonic tensile behavior of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) in its virgin, regrind, and laminated forms. HDPE is the most commonly used polymer in many industries. A variety of tensile tests were performed using plate-type specimens made of rectangular plaques. Several factors can affect the tensile behavior such as thickness, processing technique, temperature, and strain rate. Testing temperatures were chosen at −40, 23 (room temperature, RT), 53, and 82 °C to investigate temperature effect. Tensile properties, including elastic modulus, yield strength, and ultimate tensile strength, were obtained for all conditions. Tensile properties significantly reduced by increasing temperature while elastic modulus and ultimate tensile strength linearly increased at higher strain rates. A significant effect of thickness on tensile properties was observed for injection molding specimens at 23 °C, but no thickness effect was observed for compression molded specimens at either 23 or 82 °C. The aforementioned effects and discussion of their influence on tensile properties are presented in this paper. Polynomial relations for tensile properties, including elastic modulus, yield strength, and ultimate tensile strength, were developed as functions of temperature and strain rate. Such relations can be used to estimate tensile properties of HDPE as a function of temperature and/or strain rate for application in designing parts with this material.

Abstract
Polyamide 66 (PA 66) and short glass fiber reinforced versions of PA 66 are widely used for solar-thermal applications, in which thermal and environmental loading of components is from high importance. In this study, the influence of crosslinking via electronic beam irradiation on the morphology and mechanical behavior of unreinforced PA 66 and two types of short glass fiber reinforced PA 66 (30 wt % glass fiber content, 35 wt % glass fiber content) was investigated. In total, five different electronic beam irradiation doses in the range of 0 and 200 kGy were applied. Besides experiments with unconditioned specimens, also preconditioned specimens saturated with water at 80 °C for seven days were investigated. It was found that irradiation causes a shift to lower melting temperatures and lower melting enthalpies, while simultaneously leading to higher glass transition temperatures (TG), increasing small strain modulus values and higher tensile strengths. Also, as expected, preconditioning samples in water at 80 °C to water uptake saturation leads to a shift to lower TG values (‘plasticization’ effect). In terms of tensile behavior at room temperature, water saturated specimens (being above TG at room temperature) exhibited lower modulus and tensile strength values compared to quasi-dry specimens (being below TG at room temperature).

Abstract
Considering the case of fabricating a UHSFRC (ultra-high strength fiber-reinforced concrete) beam with the method of one end placing and self-flowing to the other end, it was intended to simulate the variation of the fiber orientation distribution according to the flow distance and the variation of the resultant tensile behaviors. Then the validity of the simulation approach was shown by comparing the simulated results with experimental ones. A three-point bending test with a notched beam was adopted for the experiment and a finite element analysis was performed to obtain the simulated results for the bending test considering the flow-dependent tensile behavior of the UHSFRC. From the simulation for the fiber orientation distribution according to the flow distance, it could be found that the major change in the fiber orientation distribution took place within a short flow distance and most of the fibers became nearly aligned to the flow direction. After some flow distance, there was a not-so-remarkable variation in the fiber orientation distribution that could influence the tensile behavior of the composite. For this flow region, the consistent flexural test results, regardless of flow distance, demonstrate the reliability of the simulation.

Abstract
There is an increasing interest in developing porous metals or metallic foams for functional and structural applications. The study of the physical and mechanical properties of porous metals is very important and helpful for their application. In this paper, a novel sintered multilayer wire mesh porous plate material (WMPPs) with a thickness of 0.5 mm-3 mm and a porosity of 10-35% was prepared by winding, pressing, rolling, and subsequently vacuum sintering them. The pore size and total size distribution in the as-prepared samples were investigated using the bubble point method. The uniaxial tensile behavior of the WMPPs was investigated in terms of the sintering temperature, porosity, wire diameter, and manufacturing technology. The deformation process and the failure mechanism under the tensile press was also discussed based on the appearance of the fractures (SEM figures). The results indicated that the pore size and total size distribution were closely related to the raw material used and the sintering temperature. For the WMPPs prepared by the wire mesh, the pore structures were inerratic and the vast majority of pore size was less than 10 μm. On the other hand, for the WMPPs that were prepared by wire mesh and powder, the pore structures were irregular and the pore size ranged from 0 μm-50 μm. The experimental data showed that the tensile strength of WMPPs is much higher than any other porous metals or metallic foams. Higher sintering temperatures led to coarser joints between wires and resulted in higher tensile strength. The sintering temperature decreased from 1330 °C to 1130 °C and the tensile strength decreased from 296 MPa to 164 MPa. Lower porosity means that there are more metallurgical joints and metallic frameworks resisting deformation per unit volume. Therefore, lower porosities exhibit higher tensile strength. An increase of porosity from 17.14% to 32.5% led to the decrease of the tensile strength by 90 MPa. The coarser wires led to a bigger contact area between the interconnecting wires, resulting in a stronger sintering neck that exhibited higher tensile strength. The wire diameter increased from 81 μm to 122 μm and the tensile strength increased from 296 MPa to 362 MPa. The fracture morphology showed that the wires experience necking deformation and ductile fracture.

Abstract
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) has gained interest in many industrial applications due to its high strength-to-weight ratio, excellent heat tolerance and high corrosion resistance. Stress concentrators such as notches and geometrical discontinuities are present in many such components necessitating the reliable assessment of notch sensitivity of PEEK in monotonic tension. Here we evaluate the applicability of the strain energy density (SED) approach for the assessment of the fracture strength of experimentally tested notched geometries subject to corrosion. The fracture behavior of neat, circumferentially razor-grooved dog-bone specimens and circumferentially U-notched specimens with different notch radii can be predicted with a discrepancy lower than ±10%. Reliable predictions are shown on two previously published datasets employing both computed and published mechanical properties as inputs for the SED calculations. This report presents the first successful application of SED for PEEK as well as the successful prediction of tensile behavior in corrosive environments. This opens the road towards future applications of PEEK in fields its compliant use is of growing popularity.

Abstract
Instrumented Charpy test data can be used to obtain estimates of dynamic yield strength, by means of a well-established relationship published by W. Server in 1978. A fundamental issue in comparing measured dynamic tensile properties and Charpy-based estimations is establishing the equivalent uniaxial strain rate for an instrumented Charpy test, typically conducted at ≈ 5.5 m/s. In this investigation, by performing tensile tests at various strain rates and instrumented Charpy tests for 10 different materials, we compared values of dynamic yield strength both measured from tensile tests and estimated by means of Server's equation. The obtained equivalent Charpy strain rates were found to vary significantly from material to material, and to correlate reasonably with specific values of absorbed energy measured during the impact tests.

Abstract
Of the plethora of work performed analyzing skeletal muscle tissue, relatively little has been done in the examination of its passive material properties. Previous studies of the passive properties of skeletal muscle have been primarily performed along the longitudinal material direction. In order to ensure the accuracy of the predictions of computational models of skeletal muscles, a better understanding of the tensile three-dimensional material properties of muscle tissue is necessary. To that end, the purpose of this study was to collect a comprehensive set of tensile stress-strain data from skeletal muscle tissue. Load-deformation data was collected from eighteen extensor digitorum longus muscles, dissected free of aponeuroses, from nine New Zealand White rabbits tested under longitudinal extension (LE), transverse extension (TE), or longitudinal shear (LS). The linear modulus, ultimate stress, and failure strain were calculated from stress-strain results. Results indicate that the linear modulus under LE is significantly higher than the modulus of either TE or LS. Additionally, the ultimate stress of muscle was seen to be significantly higher under LE than TE. Conversely, the failure strain was significantly higher under TE than under LE.
