Mechanical and hydration properties of ground granulated blastfurnace slag pastes activated with MgO-CaO mixtures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Since alkali-activated slag using conventional activators suffers from economical and technical problems, other alternative activators should be explored.

Composition of ground granulated blast-furnace slag and fly ash-based geopolymer activated by sodium silicate and sodium hydroxide solution: multi-response optimization using Response Surface Methodology

open access: yesVietnam Journal of Science, Technology and Engineering, 2021
Geopolymers are a class of new binder manufactured by activating aluminosilicate source materials in a highly alkaline medium. This binder is considered “environmentally friendly” due to the recycling of industrial waste sources such as fly ash and ...

Innovative development and structural behavior of hollow columns using inflatable molds

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study introduces a novel approach for constructing hollow columns using precast (PC) methods enhanced by inflatable air tubes as internal molds. The proposed method addresses practical challenges in conventional hollow column construction, such as limited constructability, high production cost, and interference between internal molds and ...

Clays for Low‐Carbon Cements: Overview, Progress, and Challenges

open access: yesGlobal Challenges, Volume 10, Issue 1, January 2026.
This review provides a critical overview of recent developments of activated clays to function as artificial pozzolans. After a thorough description of the clays that yield good pozzolanic performances, selected examples are given on thermal and mechanical activations. Chiefly, general correlations are extracted from reported data despite its scattered

Effect of Extracted Titanium Tailing Slag on the Properties of Alkali-Activated Fly Ash-Ground Blast Furnace Slag Binder

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2022
The extracted titanium tailings slag (TS) is a by-product of titanium extraction from the blast furnace slag. Its chemical composition is similar to that of ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS), but the relatively lower reactivity limited its ...

A Probabilistic Cut Finite Element Method With Random Field Generator and Bayesian Model Calibration for Flow Through Rough Cracks

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 1, Page 298-320, January 2026.
ABSTRACT A new model for the simulation of fluid flow through rough cracks is presented. The model combines a probabilistic cut finite element method (PCutFEM) to capture the unfitted boundary condition at the fluid interface, with a stochastic random field generator to represent the crack asperities.
