Although previous experimental studies have elucidated the total tensile capacity of R-UHPC, the individual contributions of UHPC and steel rebar remain unclear. Moreover, there is limited research on the influence of autogenous shrinkage on the tensile performance of R-UHPC. Therefore, this study aims to establish a model that accurately quantifies the contributions of both components and investigates the effect of autogenous shrinkage on the tensile behavior of R-UHPC. Direct tensile tests were conducted on both reinforced conventional UHPC (R-CUHPC) and reinforced low-shrinkage UHPC (R-LUHPC) specimens (with the addition of expansive agent and shrinkage-reducing agent) at reinforcement ratios of 1.7 %, 3.0 %, and 6.8 %, respectively. The results indicated that, as the reinforcement ratio increased, the first-cracking strength of R-LUHPC specimens exhibited slight fluctuations, whereas it notably decreased in R-CUHPC specimens. Additionally, autogenous shrinkage had minimal impact on the tensile capacity of R-LUHPC specimens. To tackle the challenge of quantifying the individual contributions of UHPC and steel rebar from experimental data, a deep learning-based symbolic regression method was introduced. As a result, a highly accurate model was developed to calculate the tensile capacity of R-UHPC components, incorporating 1.157 times the steel rebar's yield strength and 0.669 times the UHPC's ultimate tensile strength. Furthermore, this model reflects the load-bearing mechanism in which the steel rebar enters strain-hardening, while the contribution of UHPC does not reach its ultimate tensile strength due to the pull-out of partial steel fibers.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9865,"journal":{"name":"Cement & concrete composites","volume":"160 ","pages":"Article 106019"},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143538894","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS) shows prospect performance in the modification of β-HPG. However, the strength development of GGBS requires high humidity which is harmful to gypsum-based materials. The influence of various curing regimes on the mechanical strength and microstructure of the β-HPG-GGBS composite binder was studied. Wet curing for 7 d and then dry curing for 21 d (W7d/D21d) proved the best curing conditions. The results show that W7d/D21d has a compressive strength of 22.15 MPa, which is 80 % more than that of dry curing for 28 days (D28d). In addition, the curing condition of W7d/D21d was proved to reduce the pore size and total porosity of the hardened paste, and the large damaged pores of W7d/D21d were decreased by 30 % compared with D28d. This indicates that proper wet curing provides sufficient water for the hardened paste and promotes the hydration degree of the composite binder, improving its mechanical properties. Specifically, the ettringite (AFt) formation of W7d/D21d is 3 times more than that of D28d, resulting in a more compact microstructure. It can be found that the pore structure parameters, compressive strength, total porosity, and fractal dimension of the hardened paste have a high exponential correlation.

This paper investigates the effect of the combination of PCE and sodium gluconate (SG) retarder on the early workability and hydration of AAS based on the interaction among PCE, SG and slag. PCE existed in the form of aggregates in NaOH solution, and the size of the aggregates in 4M NaOH is larger than that in 3 M NaOH. Results show that SG incorporation significantly prevented the rapid loss of PCE dispersing ability over time due to its strong inhibition on the early hydration of AAS. The initial dispersing ability of PCE was also influenced, which was related to the activator concentration and the dosage of PCE. The initial dispersing ability of PCE was improved at dosages below 0.3 % regardless of the NaOH concentration, as the adsorbed SG occupied adsorption sites, preventing PCE aggregates from bridging multiple slag particles. With increasing PCE dosage, PCE competed with SG for adsorption sites on the slag surface. At 3 M NaOH concentration, the addition of SG reduced the adsorption amount of the smaller PCE aggregates and hence their initial dispersing ability. However, the larger PCE aggregates formed in 4 M NaOH exhibited stronger adsorption capacity than SG and their adsorption was not affected, thus their initial dispersing ability remained unchanged at 4 M NaOH.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9865,"journal":{"name":"Cement & concrete composites","volume":"159 ","pages":"Article 106015"},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143532433","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dynamic splitting tests were performed at impact pressures of 0.10, 0.20, 0.30, and 0.40 MPa to analyze the failure modes, fractal dimensions, and energy characteristics of CASS under different loading conditions. To further explore its fracture mechanisms, a coupled numerical model integrating the finite difference method (FDM) and discrete element method (DEM) was developed to simulate the dynamic response of CASS, and the model was calibrated using nanoindentation results. The results revealed that CASS exhibited strong rate-dependent behavior, and its dynamic splitting tensile strength (<em>DSTS</em>) increased from 9.6 ± 0.1 MPa to 17.1 ± 0.1 MPa as the loading rate increased from 78 ± 1 GPa s⁻¹ to 182 ± 1 GPa s⁻¹.

Consequently, both the difference in the expansion models and the creep of the aggregate affected the anisotropy of expansion and cracking. It was thus suggested that the creep of the aggregate should be considered when discussing ASR expansion because the accumulation of swelling pressure caused a significantly high compressive stress in the aggregate. Furthermore, the expansion cracks under restraint exhibited an orientation parallel to the restraint direction, which resulted in the anisotropy of the compressive properties. The cracks perpendicular to the loading axis caused a significant reduction in the compressive properties compared with the parallel cracks.

However, classical micromechanics-based design theory of ECC qualitatively indicates whether a mix meets the pseudo strain-hardening condition, and cannot provide detailed ECC mix compositions targeting specific mechanical performance requirements. This study presents a Materials Genome Initiative (MGI)-oriented strategy to design ECC through properties prediction and optimization design based on machine learning (ML). The genomic characteristics of ECC materials were summarized and analyzed, demonstrating that the mechanical properties of ECC could be closely related with its raw material attributes and mixture proportions. A comprehensive data-driven ML framework for the design of ECC was proposed, which integrates database construction with data treatment, feature selection, interpretable ML model prediction and inverse optimization design. A preliminary study towards designing ECC mixture proportions that meet specific performance requirements was further conducted. Three ML models were developed to predict the tensile properties of ECC based on the constructed database. The weight ratios of the binder, the sand-to-binder ratio, the water-to-binder ratio and the volumetric ratio, diameter, and length of fibers were employed as the input features for the ML modelling. With the best prediction models, two design scenarios with four objectives including tensile strength, tensile ductility, carbon footprint, and material cost of ECC were optimized using non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II). As a result, the proposed ML framework could achieve reliable properties prediction and rapid, quantitative, and intelligent design for ECC, which were validated by the experiments.
