Stress evolution in restrained GGBFS concrete due to autogenous deformation: bayesian optimization of aging creep

Stress evolution of restrained concrete is a significant direct index in early-age cracking (EAC) analysis of concrete. This study presents experiments and numerical modelling of the early-age stress evolution of Ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) concrete, considering the development of autogenous deformation and creep. Temperature...

Abundant grain boundaries activate highly efficient lithium ion transportation in high rate Li₄Ti₅O₁₂ compact microspheres

It is a huge challenge for high-tap-density electrodes to achieve high volumetric energy density but without compromising the ionic transportation. Herein, we prepared compact Li₄Ti₅O₁₂ (LTO) microspheres consisting of densely packed primary nanoparticles. The real space distribution of lithium ions inside the...
