Theoretical Modeling of Signal Loss versus Crack Opening for a Novel Crack Sensor
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The degradation of concrete structures is always accompanied by the formation of cracks. Crack monitoring is hence useful in assessing the “health condition” of the structure. In our previous investigation on an optical-fiber ...
Lightweight Alkali-Activated Material from Mining and Glass Waste by Chemical and Physical Foaming
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A foamed alkali-activated material (FAAM) based on tungsten mining waste (TMW) and municipal waste glass (WG) is fabricated by using aluminum powder and organic surfactant foaming agents. The compressive strength and density ...
Sustainable Calcination of Magnesium Hydroxide for Magnesium Oxychloride Cement Production
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Effects of varying calcination conditions on the chemical and physical properties of magnesium oxide (MgO), an essential component of magnesium-based cement, were investigated using the more sustainable precursor material ...
