Numerical Simulation of Fatigue Life of Rubber Concrete on the Mesoscale
Polymers, 2023 Rubber concrete (RC) exhibits high durability due to the rubber admixture. It is widely used in a large number of fatigue-resistant structures. Mesoscale studies are used to study the composition of polymers, but there is no method for fatigue simulation

Deciphering the Non-Linear Impact of Al on Chemical Durability of Silicate Glass
Social Science Research Network, 2021 The role of Al in aluminosilicate glasses remains somewhat a mystery: at low concentrations, it increases the resistance to hydrolysis of the glass, whereas at high concentrations an opposite effect is observed. To understand the origin of the phenomenon
