The utilizations of locally available marine resources (eg, seawater, sea-sand or coral sand,
and coral coarse aggregate) for concrete preparation on reef or island areas contribute to …

This paper presents an innovative numerical modeling framework capable of generating
highly realistic 3D mesoscale multi-phase concrete models with unprecedented efficiency …

Reasonable use of coral as concrete aggregate can solve the shortage of raw materials for
islands engineering construction and effectively reduce the costs and energy consumption …

Coral aggregates replace traditional aggregate sources to prepare coral aggregate concrete
(CAC) in remote island or reef areas contributing to reduced construction costs and periods …

The compressive strength of coral aggregate concrete (CAC-CS) holds importance in
structural engineering and architectural design. Thus, this study establishes machine …

To better understand the damage characteristics of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC)
containing coarse aggregates (CA) under load effects, we proposed a novel three …

This study aims to investigate the macroscopic mechanical properties and mesoscopic
damage mechanisms of basalt fibre-reinforced seawater sea-sand slag-based geopolymer …

In the construction of island and reef engineering, coral concrete shows a good application
prospect due to its abundant raw materials. However, the porous and fragile mechanical …

Releasable sulfate contained in the Excess Sulfate Phosphogypsum Cementing System
(ESPCS) potentially degrades interfaces when contacted with conventional cements, raising …

Coarse aggregate crushing has a significant impact on concrete deformation and failure
characteristics. The coarse aggregate geometries with actual shapes are imported and the …
