The bending behavior of 7 p dia. carbon filaments at room temperature was studied by forming a loop in a vertical plane and measuring the loop diameter corresponding to various loads applied to the free end. The initial slope of the resulting stress-strain curve gave values of Young's modulus equal
The paper examines two existing models for predicting the load-deflection behavior of plain concrete from fracture energy measured in three-point bending. These models are shown to overestimate the peak load attainable by concrete beams. This major drawback is overcome by proposing a new model tha
