Abstract: The rheology behavior of fresh short fiber reinforced cementitious composite (SFRCC) for extrusion purpose was investigated through capillary extrusion. It was found that the classical capillary theory for single-phase ...

Abstract: Upsetting tests were conducted on cylindrical specimens made of a typical fresh short fiber-reinforced cementitious composite (SFRCC) paste for extrusion at various boundary conditions to derive the paste’s constitutive ...

Abstract: In this paper, first, the technical aspects for applications of finite-element method (FEM) in modeling material forming processes are reviewed, with a final determination of employing the solid formulation explicit finite ...

Abstract: This study evaluated the results of preparation conditions for the production of an alkali-activated binder (AAB) based on a binary mixture of tailings from tungsten mine waste (TMW), and waste glass (WG) activated with a ...

Abstract: Short fiber reinforced cement composites with large volumes of perlite have been investigated for their resistance to high temperature exposures. The composites were manufactured by the extrusion technique. The extruded ...

Abstract: Accelerated durability assessment is one of the promising ways to provide a sound basis for service life prediction of concrete. To follow the rapid pace of research in modern concrete technology, an effective accelerated ...

Abstract: Geopolymer composites reinforced with short polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fibers have been manufactured using the extrusion technique. The extruded products were thin plates with

Abstract: A new experimental method is proposed for assessing the cracking tendency of concrete using elliptical ring specimens subject to restrained shrinkage. To explore the mechanism of this method, a numerical model is developed ...
