The Prediction of Abrasion Resistance of Mortars Modified with Granite Powder and Fly Ash Using Artificial Neural Networks

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
This paper predicts the abrasion resistance of a cementitious composite containing granite powder and fly ash replacing up to 30% of the cement weight. For this purpose, intelligent artificial neural network (ANN) models were used and compared.

Engineered Wood Products as a Sustainable Construction Material: A Review

open access: yes, 2022
Engineered wood products are considered as best building materials due to environmentally friendly. Huge change to the way in which wood has been utilized in primary application of construction in the course of the most recent 25 years are in light of decreased admittance to high strength timber from growth forests, and the turn of events and creation ...

EBSD Grain Knowledge Graph Representation Learning for Material Structure-Property Prediction [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
The microstructure is an essential part of materials, storing the genes of materials and having a decisive influence on materials' physical and chemical properties. The material genetic engineering program aims to establish the relationship between material composition/process, organization, and performance to realize the reverse design of materials ...

Engineering properties of compacted loesses as construction materials

open access: yesKSCE Journal of Civil Engineering, 2013
Loess often causes some problems when they are naturally deposited, or when they are used as fill materials in the construction of embankments. In the case of constructing the embankment on a thick, naturally deposited loess layer, the collapsibility, or consolidation will be a critical issue to be considered.

Superhydrophobicity of Auxetic Metamaterials [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Superhydrophobic materials are often inspired by nature, whereas metamaterials are engineered to have properties not usually found in naturally occurring materials. In both cases, the key that unlocks their unique properties is structure. Here, we show that a negative Poisson's ratio (auxetic) mechanical metamaterial is capable of transforming into a ...

A Review on Multi-Scale Toughening and Regulating Methods for Modern Concrete: From Toughening Theory to Practical Engineering Application

open access: yesResearch
Concrete is the most widely used and highest-volume basic material in the word today. Enhancing its toughness, including tensile strength and deformation resistance, can boost the structural load-bearing capacity, minimize cracking, and decrease the ...
