Zhang, H. (author), Schlangen, E. (author), Ge, Z. (author), Šavija, B. (author)Properties of concrete are, to a large extent, dependent on the properties of its binding constituent, hydrated cement paste. Therefore, knowledge of properties of hydrated cement paste is crucial for predicting concrete behaviour. This paper presents an experimentally informed approach for modelling elastic and transport properties of cement...conference paper 2021

Zhang, H. (author), Schlangen, E. (author), Šavija, B. (author)This work aims to investigate the mechanical properties of the cement paste-aggregate interface by combining experimental and numerical approaches. The multi-phase interface microstructure was obtained by X-ray computed tomography (XCT) and submitted to a discrete fracture lattice model for fracture analysis. Apart from the modelling, a...conference paper 2019

Jahangir, S. (author), Wagner, E.C. (author), Mudde, R.F. (author), Poelma, C. (author)Cavitation is a complex multiphase phenomenon, where the production of vapor bubbles leads to opaqueness of the flow. While it is nearly impossible to visualize the interior of the cavitation region with visible light, we show that with X-ray computed tomography it is possible to obtain the time-averaged void fraction distribution in an...conference paper 2018
