Zhang, Shizhe (author), Li, Victor C. (author), Ye, G. (author)Strain-hardening geopolymer composite (SHGC) lately emerged as a promising alternative to traditional strain-hardening cementitious composite with added advantages of industrial by-product utilization and enhanced sustainability. However, as the design of SHGC requires multi-factor optimization, the application of traditional trial-and-error...journal article 2020

Li, Z. (author), Zhang, Shizhe (author), Zuo, Y. (author), Chen, Wei (author), Ye, G. (author)Chemical deformation (chemical shrinkage/expansion), the absolute volume change during reactions, is a key parameter influencing the volume stability, especially the autogenous deformation of a binder material. This work, for the first time, reports an in-depth investigation on the chemical deformation of metakaolin based geopolymer (MKG)....journal article 2019
