Tech/Engineering - Construction / Civil Engineering / hydraulics/pipes | | English term or phrase: delamination | This here is the English definition of the term from Wikipedia:
Delamination is a mode of failure for composite materials.[1] Modes of failure are also known as 'failure mechanisms'. In laminated materials, repeated cyclic stresses, impact, and so on can cause layers to separate, forming a mica-like structure of separate layers, with significant loss of mechanical toughness. Delamination also occurs in reinforced concrete structures subject to reinforcement corrosion, in which case the oxidized metal of the reinforcement is greater in volume than the original metal. The oxidized metal therefore requires greater space than the original reinforcing bars, which causes a wedge-like stress on the concrete. This force eventually overcomes the relatively weak tensile strength of concrete, resulting in a separation (or delamination) of the concrete above and below the reinforcing bars.
Can anyone help me find a suitable term for it in English? I appreciate any help! |
