Cemented paste backfill (CPB) is one of the techniques developed by the mining industry to fill the voids generated by the excavation of underground spaces.

In this article, we focus on the modelling of the backfill phase where it has been shown in Vigneaux et al. (<i>Cem. Concr. Res.</i> 164:107038, 2023) that a viscoplastic lubrication model can be used to describe CPB experiments. The aim here is to propose an accelerated method for performing the parameters’ estimation of the properties of the paste (typically its rheological properties), with an inverse problem procedure based on observed height profiles of the paste. The inversion procedure is based on a metamodel built from an initial partial differential equation model, thanks to a polynomial chaos expansion coupled with a principal component analysis.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":755,"journal":{"name":"Rheologica Acta","volume":"63 4","pages":"251 - 263"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140005739","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The samples were extruded through long or short capillaries of various geometries corresponding to a predominant shear or elongational deformation. As a rheological probe, the extrudate swell at low stresses was measured for the differently pretreated samples. For the L-PP, neither molecular nor rheological changes were observed. However, the extrudate swell of the LCB-PP was found to decrease with increasing volume throughput. It was more strongly affected by shear in the capillary than by molecule stretching in the entry region. The smaller extrudate swell was accompanied by a decrease of the high molar mass tail of the LCB-PP, which could be the reason for the decay of swell, in principle. However, a comparable degradation of the high molar mass tail was obtained by a pure thermal treatment that was shown to leave the extrudate swell unchanged.

MOT is increasingly being employed alongside 3D imaging systems and particle tracking methods to generate maps showing not only how properties may vary between different points in a sample but also how at a single point the viscoelastic properties may vary with direction. However, due to the diffraction limited shape of focussed beams, optical traps are inherently anisotropic in 3D. This can result in a significant overestimation of the fluids’ viscosity in certain directions. As such, the rheological properties can only be accurately probed along directions parallel or perpendicular to the axis of trap beam propagation. In this work, a new analytical method is demonstrated to overcome this potential artefact. This is achieved by performing principal component analysis on 3D MOT data to characterise the trap, and then identify the frequency range over which trap anisotropy influences the data. This approach is initially applied to simulated data for a Newtonian fluid where the trap anisotropy induced maximum error in viscosity is reduced from ~ 150% to less than 6%. The effectiveness of the method is corroborated by experimental MOT measurements performed with water and gelatine solutions, thus confirming that the microrheology of a fluid can be extracted reliably across a wide frequency range and in any arbitrary direction.

Viscosity scaling distinguishes various concentration regimes in polyelectrolyte solutions, which change in the presence of salt. Here, the first objective was to measure the viscosity scaling for two cationic polyelectrolytes in water, acid (0.1 M HCl), and salt (0.1 M NaCl) solutions. Two polymers containing the same cationic group were compared, namely, a copolymer poly(acrylamide-<i>co</i>-diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PAAcDMAC) and a homopolymer poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDADMAC). Polyelectrolyte concentrations from 0.25 to 18 wt% spanned from dilute to entangled concentration regimes depending on the polyelectrolyte. Acid and salt had comparable effects on the polyelectrolytes’ viscosity. Specifically, the viscosity of the PAAcDMAC in 0.1 M NaCl in the dilute region decreased by 57% compared to DI water. Since salt ions screen the electrostatic interactions, polymer chains assume a more compact conformation. Little difference in zero-shear viscosity existed in the semi-dilute regimes for DI water and 0.1 M NaCl solution of PAAcDMAC. However, zero-shear rate viscosity increased by up to 18% with salt addition in the entangled regime. Since the rheology of entangled polyelectrolytes has not been extensively studied, small and large amplitude oscillatory experiments were completed to elucidate differences in viscoelasticity upon the addition of salt. Subtle differences in viscoelastic properties of 18 wt% PAAcDMAC solution were found upon salt addition in entangled regime. For example, large amplitude oscillatory experiments measured changes in maximum and minimum storage moduli upon NaCl addition. Thus, a disproportional change to the elastic behavior was captured upon salt addition.</p><h3>Graphical abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":755,"journal":{"name":"Rheologica Acta","volume":"63 2","pages":"135 - 144"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139064134","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
