Creator:: Muehlenkamp, Erik B.
Abstract:: A numerical model for the cathodic protection of steel in reinforced concrete is developed. Parameters are set to represent a three-dimensional section of a bridge beam exposed to the atmosphere and coated with a thermally sprayed zinc anode. Both diffusion of oxygen and conduction of charge within the concrete are...

Creator:: Rehani, Manu
Abstract:: Chloride ion migration was studied under accelerated cathodic protection conditions using 6" x 6" x 6" mortar blocks of varying initial chloride content and water to cement ratios. An iron mesh embedded parallel to one face in the blocks acted as the cathode and zinc was thermally sprayed on the...

Creator:: Orlova, Nadejda V.
Abstract:: The migration of chloride ions in concrete with steel reinforcement under cathodic protection was investigated. Mortar blocks (15 cm x 15 cm x 17 cm) of various composition (water to cement ratio, chloride ion content) were cast with an iron mesh cathode embedded along one face and a thermally sprayed...

Creator:: Potisuk, Tanarat
Abstract:: Three-dimensional finite element models are developed to simulate the behavior of four fill-scale reinforced concrete beams. The beams are constructed with different fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthening schemes, and are modeled using ANSYS, a commercially available finite element analysis program. The experimental beams replicate the transverse beams of the Horsetail Creek...

Creator:: Triska, Mary Ann
Abstract:: Large numbers of reinforced concrete deck girder bridges that were constructed during the interstate system expansion of the 1950s have developed diagonal cracking in the stems. Compared to the present AASHTO-LRFD standards, the provisions of the 1950s allowed for higher shear stress in the concrete, thus reducing the amount of...
