Recycling of Aluminosilicate-Based Solid Wastes through Alkali-Activation: Preparation, Characterization, and Challenges

Recycling aluminosilicate-based solid wastes is imperative to realize the sustainable development of constructions. By using alkali activation technology, aluminosilicate-based solid wastes, such as furnace slag, fly ash, red mud, and most of the bio-ashes, can be turned into alternative binder materials to Portland cement to reduce the carbon...

Uncertainty Analysis and Risk Management of Underground Cavern Group at Jinping II Hydropower Station

The epistemic uncertainty and aleatory uncertainty caused by the geology condition and construction method make the surrounding rock stability evaluation of underground cavern group difficult. The first may be reduced with more field investigation, tests or monitoring, but the later can not be avoided completely. So the risk analysis method can...
