Damping characteristics of PVA fiber-reinforced cementitious composite containing high-volume fly ash under frequency-temperature coupling effects

The service life of concrete structures is often threatened by unfavorable dynamic loads. Optimizing the material damping can improve the vibration damping of the structure. In this study, a polyvinyl alcohol fiber-reinforced high-volume fly ash (PVA-HVFA) cementitious composite was developed with high damping characteristics and moderate mechanical properties. The coupling effects of frequency and temperature on the damping were further...
