Evaluating the Microstructure and Interaction of Bioaggregates in Concrete Using microCT
X-Ray Spectrometry, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 285-293, March/April 2026.ABSTRACT This study investigates the use of x‐ray computed microtomography (microCT) to evaluate the incorporation of bioaggregates—specifically macauba (Acrocomia aculeata) endocarp and jute fibers—into cement‐based composites. MicroCT enables non‐destructive, three‐dimensional characterization of the internal microstructure, providing insights into ...
