Estimation of fracture energy of high-strength steel fibre-reinforced concrete using rule-based Mamdani-type fuzzy inference system
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract In this study, we worked to estimate the fracture energy of steel fibre-reinforced concrete (SFRC) according to the water/cement ratio (w/c), tensile strength of steel fibre, steel fibre volume fraction and flexural strength of concrete sample as inputs using the Mamdani-type fuzzy inference system (FIS). In the study, the values obtained from the model and experimental divided three groups (each group has six experimental results) according to the w/c ratios to evaluate the fuzzy logic (FL) model approximate reasoning ability. As a result, the Mamdani-type FIS has shown a satisfying relation with the experimental results and suggests an alternative approach to evaluate the fracture energy estimation using related inputs.
