Experimental study of predamaged columns strengthened by HPFL and BSP under combined load cases

Hua Huang et al.

Summary: The study found that using high-performance ferrocement laminate and bond steel plate to reinforce pre-damaged reinforced concrete columns can effectively restore and improve their bearing capacity, ductility, energy dissipation, and stiffness. This strengthening method also significantly improves the shear capacity of the columns and changes the failure modes. Under different loading conditions, vertical eccentricity has minimal impact on seismic behavior, while horizontal eccentricity increases the length of the failure region and reduces seismic performance.

Fracture behavior of a sustainable material: Recycled concrete with waste crumb rubber subjected to elevated temperatures

Yunchao Tang et al.

Summary: The research indicates that the impact of rubber particles on the unstable fracture toughness is greater than that on the initial cracking toughness of RAC after exposure to high temperatures. However, the enhanced effect of rubber on the fracture resistance decreases after subjecting it to high-temperature treatment due to the softening and eventual decomposition of rubber. Therefore, a rubber content of more than 4% is not recommended to avoid drawbacks introduced by rubber, considering the mechanical and fracture performance of RRAC.

Revealing the doping mechanism of barium in sulfoaluminate cement clinker phases

Jianping Zhu et al.

Summary: Ba ions preferentially incorporate into the mineral C(4)A(3)(S) over bar by substituting Ca atoms, rather than entering the other two minerals. This doping preference is attributed to the efficiency of newly formed bonds, which is enhanced by electronic structure matching and small local distortions.

Fatigue reliability evaluation of aging prestressed concrete bridge accounting for stochastic traffic loading and resistance degradation

Yuan Luo et al.

Summary: This study investigated the probabilistic fatigue damage on aging PC bridges considering the impact of stochastic traffic loading and corrosion, establishing a stochastic traffic model and a three-stage traffic growth model. Numerical results showed that the presence of cracks in rebar increased stress amplitude by 1.53 times and led to a decrease in fatigue life by 68 years, while the three-stage traffic growth models resulted in 25 years shorter fatigue life compared to a linear traffic growth model. Additionally, the corrosion effect was found to reduce the fatigue life of the bridges by 44 years.

Effects of initial SiO2/Al2O3 molar ratio and slag on fly ash-based ambient cured geopolymer properties

Ayoub Dehghani et al.

Summary: This paper discusses the impact of SiO2/Al2O3 ratio and replacement materials on the properties of fly ash-based geopolymers. Results show that increasing the SiO2/Al2O3 ratio accelerates the setting of geopolymer systems but may lead to a peak and subsequent decrease in compressive strength. Furthermore, reducing the amount of replacement materials prolongs setting time and significantly reduces compressive strength.

Mechanical, chemical and hydrothermal activation for waste glass reinforced cement

Junbo Sun et al.

Summary: Land disposal of waste glass leads to environmental contamination, and recycling it as supplementary cementitious material in concrete is a sustainable solution. Different activation approaches were studied to mitigate alkali-silica reaction (ASR) in concrete with waste glass, with combined activation showing optimal improvement in mechanical properties. Hydrothermal activation reduced ASR expansion effectively, while chemical treatment could induce excessive expansion even at low WGP content.

Machine-Learning-Aided Prediction of Flexural Strength and ASR Expansion for Waste Glass Cementitious Composite

Junbo Sun et al.

Summary: Although waste glass is nonbiodegradable, it can be utilized as a supplementary cementitious material due to its silicon dioxide content. Different activation methods for waste glass powder were studied to improve mortar strength and reduce expansion. A random forest model with hyperparameter tuning by beetle antennae search showed high accuracy in predicting flexural strength and alkali-silica reaction expansion. Particle granularity and waste glass content were found to be the most sensitive variables for mortar performance.

Time-Domain Analysis of Tamper Displacement during Dynamic Compaction Based on Automatic Control

Xi Li et al.

Summary: This study presents a simple mathematical model capturing the time-domain process of tamper displacement, which is used to evaluate crater depth and soil properties in dynamic compaction (DC). The research found that the accumulated crater depth increases with multiple impacts, but its increment decreases. Large-scale DC tests were conducted to validate the proposed model, showing that it captures typical trends in tamper displacement for single and multiple impacts. Additionally, a concept of crater depth ratio is proposed for evaluating DC efficiency and predicting the optimal tamping number.
