Restrained Shrinkage of Fly Ash Based Geopolymer Concrete and Analysis of Long Term Shrinkage Prediction Models [PDF]
, 2017 The research presented in this manuscript describes the procedure to quantify the restrained shrinkage of geopolymer concrete (GPC) using ring specimen. Massive concrete structures are susceptible to shrinkage and thermal cracking.

Shape correction factor for drying shrinkage in a concrete cross-section [PDF]
, 2015 A concrete member is subjected to loads for a long period of time, during which creep and shrinkage of concrete develop gradually. The prediction of this time-dependent behaviour is important as it may cause serious serviceability problems in concrete ...

On-sample water content measurement for a complete local monitoring in triaxial testing of unsaturated soils [PDF]
, 2012 To provide a complete local monitoring of the state of an unsaturated soil sample during triaxial testing, a local water content measurement device was adapted to a triaxial device comprising the measurement of local displacements (Hall effect ...

Mechanical properties of castor beans subject to different drying temperatures aiming to disrupt the bean coat [PDF]
Engenharia Agrícola, 2014 In castor oil extraction process, the bean coat is abrasive to the equipment and releases substances that modify the oil color, reducing its quality. A potential solution would be to run the extraction by compressing only the endosperm.

Stiction of surface micromachined structures after rinsing and drying: model and investigation of adhesion mechanisms [PDF]
, 1994 The mechanisms causing stiction of polysilicon structures fabricated by surface micromachining techniques have been investigated. It is found that during drying from rinse liquids attractive dynamic capillary forces are responsible for bringing ...

Evolving fracture patterns: columnar joints, mud cracks, and polygonal terrain [PDF]
, 2013 When cracks form in a thin contracting layer, they sequentially break the layer into smaller and smaller pieces. A rectilinear crack pattern encodes information about the order of crack formation, as later cracks tend to intersect with earlier cracks at ...
