In this study, first of all, the atomistic structure of cement hydration products is estimated via molecular dynamics method and their elastic properties are extracted. Then, cement hydration simulation is done by HYMOSTRUC3D model and the obtained results from both molecular ...
Mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP) measurements are widely used to determine pore throat size distribution (PSD) curves of porous materials. The pore throat size of porous materials has been used to estimate their compressive strength and air permeability. However, the effect ...
Because the pore plays the primary role in strength development of blended cement paste, the role of filler-hydrates adhesion properties has attracted very little attention. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of filler-hydrates adhesion properties on streng ...
Graded blended cement made of graded Portland cement (PC), blast furnace slag (BFS) and fly ash (FA) is attractive for cement production. For manufacturing graded blended cement, a suitable mathematical expression should be introduced to describe the particle size distribution ...
More and more studies are based on digital microstructures of cement pastes obtained either by numerical modelling or by experiments. A comprehensive understanding of the their pore structures, therefore, becomes significant. In this study, the pore structure of a virtual ceme ...
