The present paper describes the acoustic emission (AE) behavior of concrete under four-point bending. Steel fibres of varying content were used as reinforcement in concrete slabs and their influence on the fracture process and the acoustic activity was investigated. The total acoustic emission (AE)

The work of fracture, YF, and the critical stress intensity factor Kc, have been determined for the failure in bending of notched samples of sand/cement mortar reinforced with short, randomlydistributed fibres of glass, high carbon steel, and mild steel. Results were obtained on wet and dry stored m
Acoustic emission (AE) energy, instead of amplitude, associated with each of the event is used to estimate the fracture process zone (FPZ) size. A steep increase in the cumulative AE energy of the events with respect to time is correlated with the formation of FPZ. Based on the AE energy released du
Abatraet-The new failure criterion of rock in plastic strain space is presented upon previous experiment results and the hypothesis that dissipation energy in a material causes failure. The main characteristics and applications to rocks of the criterion are discussed. The criterion can well explain
