This study presents a comprehensive review and systematic analysis of 116 publications
focusing on the dynamic increase factor (DIF) in concrete, a critical parameter for evaluating …

Red mud is a hazardous waste generated from alumina production, and its safe disposal is
a worldwide issue. Although some previous studies have reused red mud in cement-based …

The development of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) with lower carbon emission
has conducted by many researchers. However, there is a lack of quantitative comparison of …

This work investigated the tensile fatigue behaviors of ultra-high performance concrete
containing coarse aggregate (UHPC-CA), with an emphasis on exploring the underlying …

Chloride-induced corrosion of ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC)
inevitably affects structural durability. However, the process of multi-fiber corrosion and …

Coarse aggregates are recently used to address the high production costs and severe
autogenous shrinkage of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC), however, the influence of …

Calcium carbonate binder is well-known to reduce the carbon footprint and brings great
economic and environmental benefits. However, the cementitious mechanism is unclear due …

The interfacial transition zone (ITZ) between the internal aggregate of concrete and the
cement paste is the weak link of concrete. In order to explore the relationship between the …

Abstract Calcium-Silicate-Hydrate (CSH) is the primary binding phase in cement and plays a
crucial role in lifecycle performance of concrete. Understanding its multiscale mechanical …

Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is being considered as a potential material for
concrete structures subject to impact and blast loads due to its exceptional strength and …
