Description

The data contained in this archive was produced within the research project described in the following thesis:
    Tirassa M. (2020). The transfer of forces through rough surface contact in concrete. Ph.D. Thesis, EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland.
The research project was funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation through research grant 200021_169649.
The data relates to the topic of force transfer across concrete cracks and interfaces (rebar-to-concrete) subjected to mixed mode kinematics with constant opening angle. It comprises the measured forces (normal and tangential) and displacements (crack opening and sliding). Moreover, some of the resulting surfaces (scanned using a digital microscope) are included.
