Modelling internal curing in concrete
, 2012 Internal curing by means of superabsorbent polymers (SAP) is an efficient method for providing additional curing water in high performance concretes. In order to fully use the potential of internal curing reservoirs, it is important that curing water is supplied uniformly in the whole volume of cement paste.

Influence of curing on the properties of concretes and mortars in hot climates [PDF]
, 1988 This investigation deals with the influence of initial curing periods and different curing environments, similar to those found in Middle Eastern countries, on the pore size distribution, permeability, water absorption and compressive strength of cement

Effect of Internal Curing on StrengthDevelopment of High Performance Concrete by Using Crushed Lightweight Porcelinite [PDF]
Engineering and Technology Journal, 2014 High performance concrete, HPC, requires a low water-to-cementitious materials mass ratio w/cm and supplemental cementitious materials with silica fumes in the mixture, and use of a superplasticizer.

CURE OF INTERNAL HEMORRHOIDS. [PDF]
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1899 Undoubtedly there have been sufficient schemes advanced to cure internal hemorrhoids to rival in number the so-called "cures" of cancer. The trouble is so annoying and painful that the poor sufferer, trying each, turns from one to another and finally throws all aside as useless.

Effect of the curing conditions of concrete on the behaviour under freeze-thaw cycles [PDF]
, 2011 The aim of this work is to relate the curing conditions of concrete and the addition of an air-entraining admixture with the damage caused by freeze–thaw cycles. In countries with a continental climate, the curing of concrete in summer is performed under
