Effect of ultra-fine fly ash on the mechanical and shrinkage properties of ultra-high performance concrete

This paper reports on a study to determine the possibility of using ultra-fine fly ash (UFA) for partial or total replacement of normal fly ash (NFA) in ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC). Workability, microstructure, porosity, drying shrinkage as well as mechanical properties were comprehensively studied to investigate the influence of UFA...

Effect of fine aggregate on rheological properties of ultra-high performance concrete（UHPC)

In this paper, four kinds of ecological fine aggregates (manufactured sand, recycled sand, aeolian sand and river sand) were used to prepared UHPC, the effects of the fine aggregates on the workability, rheological properties and mechanical properties of UHPC were studied. The results reveal that the type and content of fine aggregate have an...

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...
