Novel fiber-reinforced composite materials based on sustainable geopolymer matrix (2011, background): “It has been reported that adding reinforcing fibers to a brittle matrix helps to control micro and macro-cracks diffusion through the material by generating a bridging effect [4, 8-13], as well as to change the post-cracking behavior of the material from a brittle fracture mode to a ductile one, tha”
