The properties improvement of UHPC incorporation cellulose fiber and the autogenous shrinkage reduction mechanism with internal curing effect

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology
Internal curing has been proven to be an efficient way to inhibit shrinkage of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC). Cellulose fiber (CF), which has a hydrophilic surface and lumen structure, is a suitable internal curing agent without self-volume ...

Synergistic effect of expansive agent and internal curing on the performance of UHPC

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials
The challenge of autogenous shrinkage in ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) arises from the scarcity of expansive hydration products and insufficient water for cement hydration, which jeopardize structural stability.

Thermo-hygro-chemo-mechanical model of concrete at early ages and its extension to tumor growth numerical analysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The aim of the PhD thesis is the development of two multiphase models from a common theoretical basis, applied to two very different research fields: i) the study of the behavior of concrete at early ages, essentially for the prevention of cracking and ...

Autogenous shrinkage of alkali-activated fly ash slag paste [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The autogenous shrinkage of alkali-activated fly ash/slag (AAFS) pastes during first 24 h after casting is an important engineering property, as it significantly contributes to ultimate shrinkage and cracking risk.
