Adiabatic temperature rise (ATR), early-age strength development for a normal-strength
concrete (NC) and a high-strength concrete (HSC) mixes widely used in bridge construction …

This paper presents the findings of an investigation on early-age thermal behavior of
concrete segmental box girders using finite element (FE) analysis. A FE segmental box …

Reusing recycled tires in concrete instead of natural aggregates minimizes both the
consumption of natural resources and the pollution that results from the disposal of used …

In this study, the early age thermal properties of a concrete mix containing ground
granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) were investigated and incorporated in a finite …

Large-scale connecting segments can provide reasonable load transition in hybrid girders,
and have been broadly used in long-span cable-stayed bridges. However, the large volume …

Three-dimensional finite element (FE) thermal and stress models were created to compute
the temperature evolution, thermal stress and potential of cracking in a segmental concrete …

Engineering infrastructure includes a large number of concrete structures. The main binder
used in concrete is Portland cement, which reacts with water when mixing. During the …

Transient thermal analysis of mass concrete using ANSYS finite element program has
become popular. In ANSYS, material properties and heat generation rate of concrete are …

The paper aims to prove that the application of innovative constituents and materials can
noticeably affect the mechanical behavior of structures. The research is focused on the long …

In this study, a three-dimensional (3D) mathematical model based on conduction heat
transfer in a solid is developed to predict the temperature profile of large concrete elements …
