Elastic, strength, and fracture properties of Marcellus shale
Zhefei Jin, Weixin Li, Congrui Jin +2
Shale, a fine-grained sedimentary rock, is the key source rock for many of the world's most important oil and natural gas deposits. A deep understanding of the mechanical propertie…
Screening of Fungi for the Application of Self-Healing Concrete
Rakenth R. Menon, Jing Luo, Xiaobo Chen +5
Concrete is susceptible to cracking owing to drying shrinkage, freeze-thaw cycles, delayed ettringite formation, reinforcement corrosion, creep and fatigue, etc. Since maintenance…
Interactions of Fungi with Concrete: Significant Importance for Bio-Based Self-Healing Concrete
Jing Luo, Xiaobo Chen, Jada Crump +5
The goal of this study is to explore a new self-healing concept in which fungi are used as a self-healing agent to promote calcium mineral precipitation to fill the cracks in concr…
A multiscale framework for the simulation of the anisotropic mechanical behavior of shale
Weixin Li, Roozbeh Rezakhani, Congrui Jin +2
Shale, like many other sedimentary rocks, is typically heterogeneous, anisotropic, and is characterized by partial alignment of anisotropic clay minerals and naturally formed beddi…
Elastic Microplane Formulation for Transversely Isotropic Materials
Congrui Jin, Marco Salviato, Weixin Li +1
This contribution investigates the extension of the microplane formulation to the description of transversely isotropic materials such as shale rock, foams, unidirectional composit…
A note on Lorentz-like transformations and superluminal motion
Congrui Jin, Markus Lazar
In this extended note a critical discussion of an extension of the Lorentz transformations for velocities faster than the speed of light given recently by Hill and Cox is provided.…
