Cellular concrete: A viable low‐carbon alternative for developing countries in seismic regions?
Abstract This study investigates the potential of cellular concrete as an environmentally friendly alternative for shear walls based structural systems in seismic‐prone areas. The construction industry significantly contributes to global energy consumption and carbon emissions, mainly through the use of conventional materials like concrete and steel ...

High-temperature stability of ambient-cured one-part alkali-activated materials incorporating graphene for thermal energy storage [PDF]
In this research, the ambient cured one part alkali activated material (AAM) containing graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs), fly ash, slag and silica fume has been investigated after high temperature exposure to 200 to 800oC. Their compressive strength, thermal properties, microstructure, pore structure were characterised through visual observation ...

The Effect of the 12-micrometer Band: Comparing GOES-11 and GOES-12 Data Using the 3-Channel Volcanic Ash Algorithm [PDF]
The 12-micrometer channel on GOES-11 has been replaced by the 13.3-micrometer channel on the latest geosynchronous satellite, GOES-12. There has been concern that this 13.3-micrometer channel will not be as accurate in detecting volcanic ash. Volcanic ash is highlighted using a special volcanic ash algorithm, an arithmetic combination of the brightness

Long‐term mechanical properties of hybrid fiber‐reinforced engineered cementitious composite
Abstract Hybrid fiber‐reinforced engineered cementitious composites (hybrid ECC) employing short straight polyethylene (PE) and steel fibers have attracted growing interest in engineering applications due to their superior strength and ductility. In most studies, the mechanical properties of hybrid ECC were determined based on samples cured for 28 days,

Influence of environmental conditions on the creep behavior of large‐scale concrete specimens
Abstract In this article, a testing campaign on large‐scale concrete specimens to study the influence of environmental conditions on their creep behavior for different member sizes is presented. This testing campaign is unique due to its specimen dimensions (cross‐sectional areas of up to 1 m2) and the continuous deformation measurements for over 6 ...
