To properly control the reaction kinetics and fresh properties evolution in conventional alkali-activated materials (AAMs), a conceptual design of two-stream AAMs has been proposed in this study. This is achieved by dividing the solid and liquid components in AAMs, including blast furnace slag (BFS) and electric arc furnace slag (EFS)...

With the development of waste recovery techniques, previous research has revealed that coarse fractions of municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) bottom ash (BA) after proper treatment could be applied in the construction sector, while the fines are seldom recovered in practice and normally landfilled. This study explores the potential...

This paper presents an experimental study on the interface bonding properties of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fiber in alkali-activated slag/fly ash (AASF) pastes. Three interface bonding properties (i.e., the chemical bonding energy Gd, the initial frictional bond strength τ0, and slip-hardening behavior) were determined using single-fiber pullout...

Short-wave ultraviolet (also called UVC) irradiation is a well-adopted method of viral inactivation due to its ability to damage genetic material. A fundamental problem with the UVC inactivation method is that its mechanism of action on viruses is still unknown at the molecular level. To address this problem, herein we investigate the...

Alkali-activated concrete (AAC) is regarded as a promising alternative construction material to reduce the CO<sub>2</sub> emission induced by Portland cement (PC) concrete. Due to the diversity in raw materials and complexity of reaction mechanisms, a commonly applied design code is still absent to date. This study attempts to directly...

The Dinggye region, in the central part of the Himalayan orogenic belt, includes the southern part of the Xainza-Dinggye rift and the Mabja Gneiss Dome with leucogranite cores. Previous studies of gneiss domes in this region report the existence of channel flow processes or tectonic exhumation, in addition to partial melting of orogenic mid...

This paper develops a novel lattice diffusive model to quantitatively study the chloride diffusion coefficient in unsaturated cementitious materials, in which the pore voxels are redistributed to make a better representation of a real microstructure of hardened cement paste. Considering the hierarchical microstructure and different drying...

Laser-induced graphene (LIG) has aroused a wide range of research interests ranging from micro-nano energy devices to the Internet of Things (IoT). Nevertheless, the non-degradability of most-used synthetic polymer carbon sources poses a serious threat to the environment. In this work, ecofriendly chitosan-based derivatives, including...

The existing protection techniques for high-voltage direct-current (HVDC) grids suffer from several shortcomings such as high sampling frequency, poor robustness, and reliance on simulation for threshold setting. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a non-unit protection method for modular multilevel converter (MMC)-based HVDC grids...

This article presents a fully dynamic scalable switched-capacitor delta-sigma modulator that achieves a 94.1-dB dynamic range (DR). Power-and- bandwidth scalability by only changing the clock frequency is achieved using a capacitively biased and swing-enhanced floating inverter operational transconductance amplifier (OTA). Fabricated in a 180...

Cu-Ag core-shell (CS) nanoparticle (NP) is considered as a cost-effective alternative material to nano silver sintering material in die attachment application. To further reduce the cost, the thickness of the Ag shell can be adjusted. Whereas the shell thickness will also affect the thermal stability of the Cu-Ag CSNPs. In this study, molecular...

Combining the first principles calculations and the non-equilibrium Green’s function formalisms, we decipher the structural, electronic, and transport properties of boron phosphide (BP) with hydrogenation. Hydrogenated BP monolayer is an indirect semiconductor with a wide-bandgap of 3.76 eV that is favorable in power devices. We find that the...

High electric-field stress is an effective solution to the recovery of irradiated devices. In this paper, the dependence of the recovery level on the magnitude of gate voltage and duration is investigated. Compared with the scheme of high gate-bias voltage with a short stress time, the transfer characteristics are significantly recovered by...
