Study of stress-induced velocity variation in concrete under direct tensile force and monitoring of the damage level by using thermally-compensated Coda Wave Interferometry

Résumé

In this paper, we describe an experimental study of concrete behavior under a uniaxial tensile load by use of the thermally-compensated Coda Wave Interferometry (CWI) analysis. Under laboratory conditions, uniaxial tensile load cycles are imposed on a cylindrical concrete specimen, with continuous ultrasonic measurements being recorded within the scope of bias control protocols. A thermally-compensated CWI analysis of multiple scattering waves is performed in order to evaluate the stress-induced velocity variation. Concrete behavior under a tensile load can then be studied, along with CWI results from both its elastic performance (acoustoelasticity) and plastic performance (microcracking corresponding to the Kaiser effect). This work program includes a creep test with a sustained, high tensile load; the acoustoelastic coefficients are estimated before and after conducting the creep test and then used to demonstrate the effect of creep load.

  • Concrete’s behaviors under direct tensile load are studied using ultrasonic method.
  • Thermally-compensated CWI provides accurate stress-induced velocity variation (αF).
  • With αF, we have clear observations of Kaiser effect and acoustoelastic effect.
  • Effective acoustoelastic coefficient β is estimated as a nonlinear parameter.
  • β shows a higher sensitivity to the creep damage of concrete than αF.
