BEARING LOAD CAPACITY of GEOPOLYMER CONCRETE THIN WALL PANELS UNDER ECCENTRIC COMPRESSION [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Engineering and Sustainable Development, 2020
Due to the current diffusion of reinforced concrete (RC) walls structures and the introduction of new concrete cords, RC walls are an important structural element such as beams, plates and columns. The experimental program included casting and testing of

Steam curing effect on the properties of fly ash high performance recycled aggregates concrete [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The aim of this study is to encourage the use of Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) in High Performance Concrete (HPC) with fly ash. Three types of coarse RCA sourced from medium to high strength concretes were employed in 100% replacement.

Multifunctional Crushing and Piezoresistive Self‐Sensing in Conductive Epoxy/CNT‐Coated Polyetherimide TPMS Lattices

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports lightweight polyetherimide triply periodic minimal surfaces lattices coated with carbon nanotube‐reinforced epoxy that combine mechanical robustness with self‐sensing. The conformal coating enhances stiffness, strength and energy absorption while enabling reliable strain monitoring.

Recycled powder as filler admixture in cementitious systems : production and characterization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In concrete production, aggregate represents almost 75% of the materials used. The exploitation of natural sources for this purpose also causes an environmental impact, while deposition of wastes from construction industry pollutes soil and water.

Cool Kitchen: Processing Starch and Eggshell Powder into Sustainable Coatings for Passive Daytime Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A food‐grade cooling composite made from starch and recycled eggshell powder offers a scalable, ultra‐low‐cost solution for passive daytime radiative cooling. Easily prepared using basic kitchen tools, this material empowers communities, even in areas with limited infrastructure, to stay cooler during worsening summer heat waves.

Recycled concrete aggregate properties improvement

open access: yesEngineering Today, 2023
In recent years, there has been increasing interest in the use of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) as a sustainable alternative to natural aggregates in construction. RCA is obtained by crushing and reusing old concrete, which contains both the original aggregate and a cement mortar layer.

Elephant‐Skin‐Inspired Porous Cementitious Tiles with Programmable Crack Networks for Passive Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Elephant‐skin‐inspired crack networks are programmed in porous diatomaceous earth (DE)‐cement composites using substrate‐guided, stress‐concentration induced fracture. The resulting crack lattices act as capillary conduits that redistribute water, while the porous matrix stores moisture.
