The negative impacts of cement-based material (CBM) production are way bigger than ever
expected. To illustrate the scale of this phenomenon, all the forests in the world, regardless …

Mixing is a ubiquitous operation in process engineering. It is not only used for combining
materials, but also for promoting heat and mass transfer, increasing aeration, suspending …

The use of statistical and machine learning approaches to predict the compressive strength
of concrete based on mixture proportions, on account of its industrial importance, has …

This paper introduces a new model for concrete mixing kinetics. The model defines five
successive stages through which the mixture characteristics change. It is also shown that the …

This study presents an investigation on the mixing efficiency of Resonance Acoustic Mixing
(RAM) Technology® using ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC). In the first part, RAM is …

The production and utilization of concrete and concrete-based products have drastically

Concrete mixing experiments have been carried out at an industrial batching plant during a
typical production day. 34 batches were tested, including a number of water-to-powder mass …

A novel fiber optic water sensor based on the evanescent field-fiber loop ringdown (EF-
FLRD) technique is described. After removal of the plastic jacket of a section of single mode …

The US concrete industry is the main consumer of US-produced cement. The manufacturing
