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 ...
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 ...
Underground job sites such as tunnels and mines rely on the quality of recently sprayed concrete to secure freshly excavated zones. Rapid setting and early high strength development are required for safety as well as for the rapid progression of the constr ...
The selective radius shift model was used to relate changes in mineral volume due to precipitation/dissolution reactions to changes in hydraulic properties affecting flow in porous media. The model accounts for (i) precipitation/dissolution taking place on ...
This thesis is about the simulation of flow, transport and geochemical reactions in variably saturated soils. Motivated by the problematic disposal and revegetation of residue from aluminium refining, novel modelling tools for general geochemical reactions ...
A software tool for the simulation of one-dimensional unsaturated flow and solute transport together with biogeochemical reactions in the vadose zone was developed by integrating a numerical solution of Richards' equation into the geochemical modelling fra ...
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 ...
An important microstructural aspect of the early hydration of Portland cement (K) is the formation of a shell of hydration products around cement grains. There is, at present, limited information on the mechanism of formation of the shell and of the chemis ...
The enhancement of the 1 day strength of cementinous systems by a combination of calcium chlonde (CaCl2) and diethanol-isopropanolamine (DEIPA) was studied, particularly in blended cement systems A combination of quantitative X-ray diffraction with Rietvel ...
The zone of calcified cartilage (ZCC) is critical for the normal attachment of articular cartilage to bone as well as to the biomimetic bioengineering of osteochondral tissue constructs. However, relatively few osteochondral tissue engineering approaches h ...
