Yang, Zhengxian (author), Shi, Peng (author), Zhang, Yong (author), Li, Z. (author)Internal curing by superabsorbent polymer (SAP) has been applied in alkali-activated slag (AAS) systems by a few previous studies with the purpose to mitigate the autogenous shrinkage. However, the effects of SAP on other properties of AAS have been rarely studied. In this paper, the workability, strength, permeability, and frost resistance...journal article 2022

Li, Z. (author), Li, S. (author), Zhang, P. (author), Nunez, Alfredo (author), Dollevoet, R.P.B.J. (author)This paper proposes a new hypothesis for the formation process of short pitch rail corrugation. An FE wheel-track dynamic model is utilized to verify the hypothesis by reproducing corrugation initiation and consistent growth. It is found longitudinal compression modes are responsible for corrugation initiation with necessary initial...journal article 2022
