Zhang, Shizhe (author), Li, Z. (author), Ghiassi, B. (author), Yin, Suhong (author), Ye, G. (author)This study presents a comprehensive experimental investigation on the fracture properties of hardened alkali-activated slag/fly ash (AASF) pastes in relation to the microstructure formation and reaction product composition. The main reaction product in AASF is C-(N-)A-S-H gel along with minor hydrotalcite phase, with the polymerization of C-...journal article 2021

Yalçinkaya, Ç. (author), Copuroglu, Oguzhan (author)Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC), which typically contains extremely high superplasticizer amount, tends to render a special type of dense surface layer, especially under drying conditions. Even if the inner side of fresh UHPC is still in a flowable nature, the top surface of the concrete which is exposed to ambient conditions renders a...journal article 2021

Zhang, Shizhe (author), Keulen, Arno (author), Arbi Ghanmi, K. (author), Ye, G. (author)The feasibility of a waste glass powder residue (GP) from glass recycling as partial mineral precursor to produce alkali-activated materials is investigated. GP served as powder coal fly ash (PCFA) replacement within a reference system composed of 50% PCFA and 50% ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS). Compared with PCFA, GP was better...journal article 2017
