Abstract:The objective of this one-year project was to design, manufacture, and tension program fiber reinforced shape memory polymer (FRSMP) rebars, and test their shape memory effect. Unidirectional glass fiber tow and ultraviolet (UV) curing shape memory polymer with high glass transition temperature will be selected to fabricate the FRSMP rebars. Two types of FRSMP rebars manufactured and tested, one is straight rebar, which will be subjected to tension programming, and the other is curved rebar, which will be programmed by bending. The rebar programming can also be coupled with pre-stressing or post-stressing in precast concrete (PC)construction, so that prior programming can be coupled with construction.
The total size of the zip file is 166 MB. The .csv, Comma Separated Value, file is a simple format that is designed for a database table and supported by many applications. The .csv file is often used for moving tabular data between two different computer programs, due to its open format. The most common software used to open .csv files are Microsoft Excel and RecordEditor, (for more information on .csv files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/csv-file-extension). The .jpg file extension is associated with JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) file format. JPEG is a lossy image compression algorithm that significantly reduces the file size of the original image at the cost of quality. The higher the compression ratio the lower the quality of the .jpg file (for more information on .jpg files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/jpg-file-extension). File extension .json is associated to JavaScript Object Notation file format, a lightweight, text-based, language-independent data interchange format. JSON defines a small set of formatting rules for the portable representation of structured data. It is used by various applications as alternative option to XML file format. The data in a json file are stored in simple text file format and the content is viewable in any simple text editor (for more information on .json files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/json-file-extension). The file extension .md is among others related to texts and source codes in Markdown markup language. Markdown is a lightweight markup language, to write using an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text format, then convert it to structurally valid XHTML (or HTML) (for more information on .md files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/md-file-extension). The file extension .png is commonly used for images in Portable Network Graphics file format. PNG is a bitmap graphics format similar to GIF, that uses image compression mainly for web purposes (for more information on .png files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/png-file-extension).
