A new modelling platform, called mu ic has been developed to model the microstructural evolution of hydrating cement paste. The platform uses the vector approach and can be used for modelling particulate reactions including the hydration of many different ...
The effect of polycarboxylate (PC) superplasticizers with different structure on the rheological properties and hydration process of slag-blended cement pastes with a slag content between 0 and 75% has been studied. Fluidizing properties of PCs admixtures ...
This paper investigates the applicability of nucleation and growth mechanisms to the hydration of alite. Various possible mechanisms of nucleation and growth were simulated using the recently-developed microstructural modelling platform mu ic. Comparison w ...
The increasing volume of European transport urgently requires an effective road and rail system in Central European and Eastern Countries (CEEC) with a major investment in building new and assessing and rehabilitating old structures. Following 5 successful ...
The early hydration of alite, in particular the reason for the onset of the induction period, has been a subject of controversy for many decades. Several theories have been proposed, principally the formation of a protective phase inhibiting dissolution or ...
Production of cementitious materials causes the emission of CO2 gas, which has detrimental impact on the environment augmenting the global warming process. Using by-products such as slags is a possible strategy to limit the environmental impact of cementit ...
Concrete is the building material with the greatest potential for meeting the increasing housing demand in developing countries. Locally available materials should be considered as cement replacement in order to lower the costs and the environmental impact ...
Alkali-activatedslag(AAS) binders are obtained by a manufacturing process less energy-intensive than ordinary Portland cement (OPC) and involves lower greenhouse gasses emission. These alkaline cements allow the production of high mechanical strength and d ...
Natural cement, called "Roman" cement, was invented at the end of the 19th century and played an important role in the development of civil engineering works until the 1860s. More surprisingly, it was also used to restore historic buildings, such as gothic ...
