Fiber reinforced concrete does not fully replace reinforced concrete, but even with a reduction in price and production time, it has a certain part of the properties of reinforced concrete, which can be used for structural elements with specifically required properties. The subject of the presented paper is the testing and comparison of compressive and split tensile strength of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) with steel fibers MasterFiber 482 with dosage 60 kg/m3 and 90 kg/m3 and SFRC with 5 different types of steel fibers with dosage 50 kg/m3, where dosage 0 kg/m3 represents ordinary portland concrete (OPC).

This includes waste generated in the production of building materials. The construction industry is a significant contributor to global waste and carbon dioxide emissions, making it crucial to address these issues for sustainable development. During the production of CETRIS boards, approximately 7 600 tons of waste are generated annually. One of the waste materials obtained during the board processing is a fine powder. This waste material can potentially be reused in two ways: it can be incorporated back into the process of producing CETRIS boards or utilized in the production of building materials. This research project focuses on examining the possibility of using this waste material as a substitute for fine aggregate in fine-grained concrete. To investigate its viability, the waste material underwent testing for dry density and absorbency. Subsequently, a reference mixture and concretes with different replacement rates (50%, and 100%) of natural fine aggregate were produced to create self-healing concrete mixtures. The study examined the density, and compressive strength of these concrete samples 28 days after concreting. The findings indicated that as the amount of waste material in the concrete increased, the measured properties decreased. However, despite the decrease, the compressive strengths of the concrete remained very high, leading to the classification as high-strength concrete. Further exploration and optimization of the replacement rates could lead to the development of environmentally friendly and sustainable building materials.","PeriodicalId":11306,"journal":{"name":"Defect and Diffusion Forum","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140383064","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The second method is the addition of synthetic fibres to the mixture while maintaining sufficient workability. The paper examines the consistence of each mixture according to the concrete placement location, segregation of fibres in the fresh mixture and hardened composite. Both methods under laboratory and practical conditions have shown a positive impact on the reduction of segregation of steel fibres in the mixture.

Manufacturers of dry mixes declares tensile strength and compressive strength, but these properties are determined on standard beams for cement mortars, and their values may differ from the material actually formed by the 3D printing method. Another factor affecting strength is the printing process itself, where different printing machines require different consistencies and therefore different amount of water. Last but not least, it is necessary to take into account the different properties of the printed material depending on the direction of testing. Presented article brings results of determination the compressive strength, flexural tensile strength, splitting tensile strength and uniaxial tensile strength of the cement mortar from 3D printing loaded in different directions in relation to the axis of the print and comparing them with the parameters determined on standard beams made of the same material. A commercially produced dry mixture was used. Rectangular object was printed. Before the actual printing and also the fresh mixture was taken from the print head directly into the molds for the production of standard beams 40×40×160 mm. The printed object and the beams were placed in a water environment after 24 hours and the properties were determined at the age of 28 days. Cubes with dimensions of 40×40×40 mm and beams of 40×40×160 mm were subsequently cut from the printed object. The results of the testing point to a relatively large variability of the strength characteristics not only according to the direction of the load forces, but also in different places of the printed object (samples were taken in the bottom part, in the middle and in top of the printed object). Strengths of the standard beams were significantly higher than strengths of samples cut out from 3D printed object.","PeriodicalId":11306,"journal":{"name":"Defect and Diffusion Forum","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140383633","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the importance of this issue, a time dependent incompressible viscous fluid flow, heat and mass transfer over a curved stretching surface has been numerically analysed by taking into account the heat flux due to concentration gradient and mass flux due to temperature gradient. Together with this the Rosseland approximation is being employed for the nonlinear thermal radiation impact in presence of thermal slip. With the aid of non-dimensional variables and the corresponding physical boundary conditions, the leading nonlinear momentum, energy, and species equations are converted into a set of coupled ordinary differential equations. These equations are then resolved using the MATLAB bvp4c solver. The stability of the numerical technique has been verified and compared with available literatures. The resultant parameters of engineering interest and the boundary layer flow field parameters and have been presented using tables and graphically plots. The study concludes that for lesser curvature parameter (0.5≤K≤0.7) the surface drag force, heat and mass transfer rates can improve by about 9.59%, 2.87% and 1.67% each respectively. The presence of the temperature ratio parameter and the non-linear thermal radiation are found to greatly influence the temperature profile and the heat transfer rate of the system. Results show that the heat transfer rate improves by about 24.39% and 16.66% for varying non-linear thermal radiation (1≤Rd≤1.5) and temperature ratio parameter (1.2≤θw≤1.4) respectively. Results obtained also show that improving the thermal slip parameter (0.4≤L≤0.6) can reduce heat transfer rate by about 13.62% and reduce the surface temperature profile.","PeriodicalId":11306,"journal":{"name":"Defect and Diffusion Forum","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139442848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To achieve a \"high dust-free level\", the anti-wear of the paired elements under higher speed friction should be improved to reduce the generation of abrasive dust.

Hastelloy has exceptional properties like high strength, wear resistance and high-temperature stress-corrosion resistance. Therefore, Hastelloy is used in gas turbines, power plants, metal injection molding, etc. Many industrial applications are related to the properties of the surface. Wettability is a key surface property that affects applications like lubrication, adhesion, coating, heat conduction, etc. Laser Texturing is an excellent method to modify the surface properties of materials like metal, polymers and ceramic. In the present study, a carbon dioxide laser created unidirectional textures on Hastelloy (C22, C276, X). Different sets of unidirectional textures were formed by changing the laser power and frequency. Various roughness parameters were compared for every laser parameter. In this paper, the effective change in wettability properties of Hastelloy (C22, C276, X) after the Laser texturing process for a range of power and frequency were studied under DI water and glycerol as test fluids. Results show that the contact angle of the test fluid increases as the laser power increases, and the contact angle decreases as the laser frequency increases for all three superalloys. The surface energy of a given set of samples was also measured using the recorded contact angle of DI water and Glycerol by the OWRK equation. Similar trends were found in surface energy for all three Hastelloy.","PeriodicalId":11306,"journal":{"name":"Defect and Diffusion Forum","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139443932","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
