Influence of Water-to-Binder Ratio on Autogenous Shrinkage and Electrical Resistivity of Cement Mortar

open access: yesBuildings
This study investigates the effects of nano-metakaolin and fly ash contents, the water-to-binder ratio, and other factors on autogenous shrinkage, internal relative humidity, and resistivity.

A study of the importance of secondary reactions in char formation and pyrolysis : a dissertation presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Process Engineering at Massey University, Manawatū, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Anthropogenic climate change, caused primarily by excessive emissions of carbon dioxide, has led to a renewed interest in char, the solid product of pyrolysis. When applied to soil as biochar it can both sequester carbon and improve soil function.

Early age autogenous shrinkage of concrete: Dissertation

open access: yes, 2001
Volume change of concrete resulting from structural and environmental factors is an acceptable phenomenon. In the majority of cases this volume change, or shrinkage, is assumed to begin at the time of loading or drying. In reality, a volume change commences immediately after the cement and water come in contact during concrete mixing.

Autogenous shrinkage of CARDIFRCRTM [PDF]

open access: yes
Durability requirements have become a major issue in the design of concrete structures today. The hardening process plays a key role in the quality of the concrete. Autogenous shrinkage is considered to be a factor that may cause damage to the concrete structure during hardening.
