abstract = {In this thesis the constitutive theory -- which is well-developed in non-relativistic physics -- is formulated for geometrized theories of gravitation with curvature and torsion. In the introduction an overview about the non-relativistic constitutive theory is presented and some problems of constitutive theory in GRT are mentioned. Then the fundamentals of ECT (Einstein-Cartan Theory) are given. In the main part the relativistic balances for particle number density, energy-momentum, spin, and entropy are given as ''ad hoc'' equations, motivated by their non-relativistic analoga. A special set of balances is derived as a consequence of the field equations of GRT and ECT. The comparison of both sets of balances shows that some balances cannot be derived from the field equations (and therefore not from a variational principle). Another difference is that the ''balances'' which are consequences of the field equations do not allow for the existence of external fields, but have geometrical sources. The complete set of balances can be generated by including the geometrical sources into the ad hoc equations. These complete balances are not compatible with the field equations of GRT and ECT; because of this, a motivation for a possible modification of the field equations is given. This procedure is based on the assumption, that a geometrized theory of gravitation as a frame theory has to allow for the description of complex materials, although these might not be of astrophysical interest (up to now). The balances, motivated by ''lifting'', are assumed to be also valid in geometrized theories of gravitation. Spin and energy-momentum are supposed to couple directly to geometry. The modification of the field equations, introduced in this context, shall denote a possible way to formulate field equations and balances in a consistent way. It is open whether it is possible to derive the balances (including the balance of entropy!) together with the field equations by a variational principle; this is not a topic of this thesis.\\ The balance of spin is investigated. It contains 6 equations for 6 wanted spin fields, but only 3 of them are measurable up to now. The spin tensor consists of 24 independent components, 6 wanted fields, and 18 constitutive functions. As a possible solution for the problem of the additional spin fields, spin axioms are formulated. These spin axioms state, that also in relativity theory only 3+9 spin fields exist. Furthermore the spin axioms identify the additional 3+9 fields with the known 3+9, without introducing a special constitutive relation.\\ As the number of independent components of the spin tensor is reduced, restrictions to geometry arise due to the fields equations. In the consequence of the spin axioms, the spin tensor is self-dual with respect to the first 2 indices. This implies that the modified torsion is also self-dual. The restrictions to geometry provide the possibility for experimental verification of the spin axioms.\\ Using the complete set of balances for \emph{extended ECT} (Riemann-Cartan geometry plus field equations plus complete balances), Liu's procedure is applied to state spaces that are compatible with a generalized Weyssenhoff fluid. The restrictions for the entropy density, entropy flux, and entropy production are derived for the Weyssenhoff fluid. The remarkable point is: Although the constitutive ansatzes for the Weyssenhoff fluid are very restrictive, there is still some freedom for the entropy density, entropy flux, and entropy production.}

For a single crack a RiceGriffith growth law is assumed: There is crack growth only if tension is applied normally to the crack surface, exceeding a critical value. Our aim is to investigate the effect of crack growth on macroscopic constitutive quantities. A possible approach taking into account such an internal structure within continuum mechanics is the mesoscopic theory. A distribution of crack lengths and crack orientations within the continuum element is introduced. Macroscopic quantities are calculated as averages with the distribution function. A macroscopic measure of the progressing damage, i.e., a damage parameter, is the average crack length. For this scalar damage parameter we derive an evolution equation. Due to the unilateral growth law for the single crack, it turns out that the form of this differential equation depends explicitly on the initial crack length distribution. In order to treat biaxial loading, it is necessary to introduce a tensorial damage parameter. We define a second-order tensor damage parameter in terms of the crack length and orientation distribution function.}

It is state of the art to use an orientation number to estimate how many fibres are aligned in stress direction.

Therefore, the orientation number is not a material property -- it depends also on the projection direction. Additionally, a simple number cannot be used to describe anisotropic properties. In this paper we introduce a tensorial approach, which is objective and consists of real material properties.}

abstract = {The orientation distribution of fibres is relevant for the properties of many different kinds of materials from many fields, like biology and engineering. In short fibre reinforced composites it is essential for the properties of these materials. PoV-Ray -- the Persistence of Vision Raytracer -- is a program to create photorealistic images using raytracing. Here we present a sort of ``creative misuse'' of this program in science, as it was originally developed as an artistic software. However the ability to create virtual images of virtual parts, to test the image recognition software, that is used to measure the fibre orientation distribution, and to be able to compare the result with the known distibution is a huge step forward. In this article the focus is on slicing/photometry, but also CT-like images or microscope images could be produced and used to test segmentation and skeletonization algorithms.}

Which orientation distribution short fibres follow in different parts of a structural element is still a subject for research and discussions in the scientific community. In this article, we present a modern and advanced method for measuring the orientation of short fibres in steel fibre-reinforced concrete (SFRC) by X-ray microtomography. With this method, a voxel image of the fibres is obtained directly in 3D, and the orientation of each individual fibre is calculated based on a skeletonized representation of this image. Scans of 12 SFRC samples, taken from the central height region of real-size floor slabs, reveal the fibres to be mostly horizontally oriented near the centre of a floor slab and more vertically oriented near the edge; here the alignment with the formwork dominates. The fibre orientation distributions are characterized by several orientation parameters as quantitative measures for the alignment. On the practical side, this method has the potential to be incorporated into the development and production process of SFRC structures to verify how the fibres contribute to capacity.

abstract = {The orientation distribution of fibres has an important impact on the properties of short-fibre reinforced composites. This article introduces a methodology for defining fibre orientations in steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC). The main method under consideration is the slicing, where two approaches are introduced, i.e. the photometric analysis and DC-conductivity measurements by a special robot. The advantage of presented slicing method is the fact, that a combined analysing approach is utilized, DC-conductivity testing is joined together with the image analysis. As a result, significant benefits are achieved, e.g. the ability of measuring the orientation of an individual fibre, the measuring of the in-plane angle in the interval [0°, 360°]. An additional important aspect in the presented slicing method is the possible usage of the structural parts extracted from the full-size floor-slabs as specimens, as it is done here. The authors present the statistics of fibre orientations, which are based on the experimental data received by the application of the mentioned analysing approaches. The presented slicing method with its possible extensions offers possibilities to improve the quality control while producing SFRC products. }

The outcomes of these numerical methods demonstrate how important it is to monitor and further to control the fibre orientation distribution during the manufacturing process. As the manufacturing process might involve casting, as, e.g., in the case of steel fibre reinforced concrete, an outlook on simulations of the manufacturing process in order to predict and to control the fibre orientation distribution is given.}

The constitutive relation is developed for one meso-volume element of \{SFRC\} as a combination of isotropic and orthotropic St. Venant–Kirchhoff material models, which are applied to concrete matrix and to steel fibres, respectively. The alignment tensors and orientation distribution function adopted from the mesoscopic continuum theory are utilised to identify the material meso-symmetry axes and to asses the contribution of fibres in the symmetry axes defined. While assessing the orthotropic meso-elasticity for fibres, the elasticity of an individual fibre in its local coordinates is transformed into the material meso-symmetry axes and weighted with the orientation distribution function of fibres. The advantage of the material model developed for \{SFRC\} is that it uses complete orientation information of fibres (two angles in spherical coordinates) and utilises tensor quantities complying with material objectivity.}

Analysis of single wake events recorded at both sites is carried out by transforming the time series of the wave amplitude into the time-frequency domain, using both a short-time Fourier transform and a wavelet transform. Analysis reveals that signature features of individual wake components can be tracked as the wake approaches the shore, but the wave amplitude and associated wave energy is transformed differently for different wake components. The wake energy is reduced as the waves propagate through the surf zone, which can be attributed mainly to wave breaking of the leading wave system and a significant reduction of the divergent wave system. However, the energy of transverse waves is stable or increasing, indicating that these waves undergo a non-breaking shoaling process.}

Though, its reliable application in civil engineering requires a deeper study due to complex material properties defining its failure and related to volumetric dispersion of fibres, and a bond between the fibres and concrete. The different fibre alignments in concrete matrix lead to anisotropic behaviour, which specifies the tensile strength and the crack intensity of the composite. SFRC crack initiation and development, and failure depend on the strength of the bond and interaction between the steel fibres and concrete. The present paper focuses on the modelling of SFRC linear-elastic state considering and evaluating the orientation distribution of fibres. In addition, the bases of SFRC failure are introduced.}

It is shown that an adequate 3D model of the area can be acquired at high resolution and in much shorter time interval than would norally be achieved through alternative methods. We provide some examples for the use of such technique while pointing to free software packages for data processing, visualization and 3D interpretation.

abstract = {One of the most important factors to determine the mechanical properties of a fibre composite material is the orientation of the fibres in the matrix. This paper presents Hessian matrix-based algorithms to retrieve the orientation of individual fibres out of steel fibre reinforced cementitious composites samples scanned with an X-ray computed tomography scanner. The software implemented with the algorithms includes a massive data filtering component to remove noise from the data-sets and prepare them correctly for the analysis. Due to its short computational times and limited need for user intervention, the software is able to process and analyse large batches of data in short periods and provide results in a variety of visual and numerical formats. The application and comparison of these algorithms lead to further insight into the material behaviour. In contrast to the usual assumption that the fibres act only along their main axis, it is shown that the contribution of hooked-end fibres in other directions may be noticeable. This means that fibres, depending on their shape, should act as orthotropic inclusions. The methods can be used by research laboratories and companies on an everyday basis to obtain fibre orientations from samples, which in turn can be used in research, to study stress--strain behaviour, as input to constitutive models or for quality assurance.}

abstract = {In present paper the authors are focusing on the features of the orientation distribution function (ODF), used to give a probabilistic assessment to the orientation of fibres in fibre reinforced composites. The ODF can be approximated using experimental data and used to evaluate the anisotropic effect of fibres in considered directions. The hardened orthotropic elastic properties of steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC), evaluated based on the approximated ODF with different orders of accuracy are used as a case study. Input data for the approximation of the ODF are individual orientations of fibres measured by X-ray micro-tomography method. The study outcomes revealed that the orthotropic elastic properties of SFRC may not be estimated accurately enough by using only the second order terms in the reconstruction of the ODF. The accuracy of the stiffness matrix components is sensitive for the orientation distribution type and the approximation of the ODF, and this should be considered in all FE applications using the ODF approach. Besides, within the study the relation between the values of the scalar-order parameter S, evaluating how well the fibres are aligned with each other, and the approximation orders of the ODF is established.}

abstract = {In this paper the influence of the boundary conditions on the fibre orientation distribution in rheology simulations of the casting of steel fibre reinforced concrete is discussed. The slip-length of the boundary condition can have a significant influence on the orientation of the fibres. This means that the material and surface properties of the formwork need to be taken into account when designing casting technology for elements made of steel fibre reinforced concrete. This also implies, that there is a chance to influence the fibre orientations by choosing appropriate surface properties of the formwork.}
