A Contribution to the Design of Textile Reinforced Concrete Structures

Patrick Lorenzo Valeri

The reduction of green-house gas emissions is one of the global challenges that our society is facing and the production of cement plays a major role because concrete is the most used material worldwide. For every 1000 kg of cement produced, 900 kg of CO2, ...

The influence of casting position and disturbance induced by reinforcement on the structural concrete strength

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Francesco Rafael Alberto Moccia

It is well known that control specimens used to assess the concrete strength of new structures have different casting and curing conditions than those of actual structures. Notably, after pouring of the concrete and before its hardening, a number of phenom ...

Prediction Error–Based Parameter Estimation for Multi-Region MFD Networks

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Isik Ilber Sirmatel

City-level traffic management remains a challenging problem. Model predictive perimeter control approaches employing macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) based models of large-scale urban road traffic represent a high-performance solution with substantial ...

Basic creep and autogenous shrinkage of Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3)

Julien Ston

The use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) to lower the clinker factor of cements is now commonplace, for it benefits performance, economics and ecology. This thesis focuses on ternary blends of limestone and calcined kaolinitic clays, two very ...

Chemical shrinkage of ye'elimite with and without gypsum addition

Karen Scrivener, Mohsen Ben Haha, Frank Bullerjahn

Ye'elimite (Ca4Al6O12SO4 or C(4)A(3)S) is the main hydraulic mineral present in calcium sulphoaluminate cement (CSA). Its reaction is responsible for the (early) hydration and associated cement properties such as the chemical shrinkage. This paper discusse ...

In-situ strength of individual silicon particles within an aluminium casting alloy

Andreas Mortensen, Goran Zagar, Martin Guillermo Mueller

Measurements of local strength are performed in-situ on individual silicon particles that constitute the second phase of aluminium alloy A356. Particles are shaped using Focused Ion Beam (FIB) milling such that, upon the application of a compressive force ...

Periodic cellular aluminum structures for space applications : from casting to additive manufacturing

Florian Thibaut Gallien

Mass is one of the crucial parameters for hardware that has to be placed in Earth orbit. Due to its harsh environment, a material with highest specific properties is desired to achieve space missions. The rise and development of new technologies, such as a ...

Thermal Activation, Intermittency and Size Effects in the Plastic Deformation of Cast Aluminium Microwires

Suzanne Godelieve Alphonsine Verheyden

The microcasting process is a scaled-down investment casting process in which molten metal is pressure-infiltrated and directionally solidified in water-soluble moulds. It was previously developed to produce metallic microwires with a diameter (D) between ...

Hydro-chemo-mechanical behavior of a sand/bentonite mixture upon wetting paths

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Donatella Manca

Sand/bentonite (S/B) mixtures are considered as backfilling materials for nuclear waste storage. The paper presents an experimental campaign that was carried out to investigate the swelling behavior of a S/B mixture, under different hydro-chemo-mechanical ...
