Effect of Sodium Monofluorophosphate Treatment on Blast Furnace Slag Cement Paste Microstructure

Hulsman-Khalil, S.G.A. (author)

Blast Furnace Slag (BFS) is a latently hydraulic material used as additive or substitute for Portland cement. The market share for BFS cement in the Netherlands is currently more than 60%. Previous research proved the high resistance of slag-rich concrete in aggressive environments such as exposure to acid, chloride ingress or sulphate attack,...

Homogeneous Orthotropic Masonry Material Model: Research, development and implementation for explicit analysis

Aukselis, A. (author)

The Groningen region, in the Netherlands, experiences earthquakes since 1986. These earthquakes are new to the region and the structures built there are not designed for it. Therefore, they pose a great risk for the historical structures and people living in the area. Most of the buildings there are built using masonry and to analyze such...

Autogeneous healing and chloride ingress in cracked concrete

Savija, B. (author), Schlangen, E. (author)

An experimental study of the influence of autogeneous healing on chloride ingress in cracked concrete is presented. In the study, two concrete mixtures (a Portland cement mix and a blast furnace slag mix), two healing regimes (submerged and fog room regime), two cracking ages (14 and 28 days), and multiple crack widths are used as parameters. An...

Fatigue model for prestressed concrete decks

Brata, T.M. (author)

A high number of concrete bridges that were built in the Netherlands around half a century ago and which had a transversely prestressed thin deck, nowadays raise a series of questions regarding their structural integrity. This is because their service life has been affected over time by a substantial rise in the number of vehicles that transit...

Stressed skin design in offshore modules

Damen, T.W.J. (author)

Offshore wind power provides an alternative to fossil fuels while negating the effect of visual and auditive distortion of onshore wind turbines. Located several kilometres offshore, the transmission cable resistance becomes substantial. To limit the losses, the voltage in the cables is increased in a substation. As this structure is often the...
