Modification to Optimise the Use of Agricultural Waste (MSA and SCBA) as Partial Cement Replacements Using Reactivity Indices for Concrete Strength Prediction

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The cement industry contributes significantly to global carbon emissions, necessitating a transition towards a net‐zero carbon footprint for the industry. This study examines the feasibility of combining two types of agricultural waste, maize straw ash (MSA) and sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA), as a sustainable partial cement replacement in concrete ...

Plant responses to urban gradients: Extinction, plasticity, adaptation

Journal of Ecology, Volume 112, Issue 12, Page 2861-2875, December 2024.
Herbaceous plants often change their morphology in response to urban conditions: grass cutting, altered soils, warmer temperatures and being surrounded by tightly‐packed buildings. These changes are sometimes hereditary, which suggests that city management and planning affect the ability of plants to survive and evolve in urban environments.

Effect of high‐range water reducer and W/C ratio on the fresh and mechanical properties of fiber‐reinforced natural zeolite SCC

Structural Concrete, Volume 25, Issue 5, Page 4075-4102, October 2024.
Abstract The present study aims to investigate how the use of high‐range water reducer (HRWR) and variations in water/cement (W/C) ratio affect the properties of self‐consolidating concrete (SCC) while taking into account different proportions of polypropylene fibers (PF) and natural zeolite (NZ). A total of 28 samples were cast and analyzed.

New perspectives on carbon reinforced concrete structures—Why new composites need new design strategies

Civil Engineering Design, Volume 5, Issue 5-6, Page 67-94, January 2024.
Abstract In civil engineering, carbon is typically regarded as a modern material to serve as reinforcement in concrete structures. Compared to steel reinforcement, it features two substantial benefits: It is not sensitive to corrosion, and has an enormously increased tensile strength.
