Study on Ultrasonic Nondestructive Testing of Self-Compacting Concrete under Uniaxial Compression Test.

ABSTRACT: To study the variation law of ultrasonic parameters of self-compacting concrete before and after damage under uniaxial compression test conditions, the C30 self-compacting concrete blocks stored for 7 days and 28 days were subjected to ultrasonic nondestructive testing, and the variation law of the sound time, amplitude, and sound velocity before and after the damage of self-compacting concrete blocks was emphatically analyzed. The concrete acoustic detection software was introduced to judge and analyze the abnormal values of the parameters of each measuring point, and the defect distribution map of each test block was obtained. The results showed that after curing the self-compacting concrete test block for 7 days and 28 days, the average value of sound time before and after the failure of each measuring point of the test block is small, and the average value of sound time before the failure is less than that after; the average amplitude after failure is smaller than that before failure, and the amplitude of some measuring points will be smaller than that before. The average sound velocity after failure is less than that before failure, and the internal defects appear and the structure is not dense. This study provides a theoretical basis for the application of ultrasonic detection technology in the field of self-compacting concrete and also provides a practical basis for the stability monitoring and failure warning of self-compacting concrete.

Experimental Investigation on the Mechanical Properties of Self-Compacting Concrete under Uniaxial and Triaxial Stress.

Project description:To explore the influence of fly ash (FA) and silica fume (SF) on the mechanical properties of self-compacting concrete (SCC) under uniaxial and triaxial, the compressive strength test, splitting strength test, ultrasonic testing test, and triaxial test were performed in this paper. The results show that the 3 days compressive strength and splitting strength of SCC decreased with the increase of FA substitution rate. The 28 days, 56 days, and 91 days compressive strength and splitting strength of SCC increased first and then decreased with the increase of FA substitution rate. The peak stress and peak strain of SCC gradually increased with the increase of confining pressure. The peak stress and strain of SCC increased first and then decreased with the increase of FA substitution rate. Moreover, the relationship models between compressive strength and splitting strength, between compressive strength and amplitude, between peak stress, peak strain and confining pressure under different FA substitution rates were proposed. As a conclusion, the addition of SF can increase the strength of SCC obviously. Under uniaxial stress, SCC failure mode is splitting failure, under triaxial stress, SCC failure mode is shear failure. Based on the Mohr-Coulomb strength theory, the failure criterion of SCC with FA and SF was discussed.

Dataset for time-lapse ultrasonic tomography of a granite slab under uniaxial compression test.

Project description:This data article includes raw data for time-lapse ultrasonic tomography measurements during a uniaxial compression test. Two sets of experimental data are included: first, the ultrasonic tomography (UT) observation (i.e., waveform) data at each 20 MPa axial stress step during the uniaxial loading test; and second, the stress-strain curve of the uniaxial compression test. A numerical model based on the combined finite-discrete element method (FDEM) was used to improve the understanding of the experimental results. The model file and the simulated acoustic emission (AE) data extracted from the simulation results are also included in this article. Data sets presented in this article help to improve understanding of the progressive rock failure process at microscopic and macroscopic scales.

Experimental Study and Failure Criterion Analysis on Combined Compression-Shear Performance of Self-Compacting Concrete.

Project description:To investigate the combined compression-shear performance of self-compacting concrete (SCC), eight groups of concrete specimens under different axial compression ratios were designed, and the composite performance under different axial stresses was carried out by hydraulic servo machine. The uniaxial and tensile splitting strength of SCC were also included in the study. The failure modes of SCC were presented, discussed, and compared with normal concrete (NC). The characteristic points of stress-strain curves of SCC specimens from the experiments were extracted and analyzed under different axial compression stress. Based on the experimental results, the shear strength of compression-shear load was divided into cohesive stress and residual friction stress. The variation of residual stress and cohesive stress under the combined compression-shear stress was analyzed, and the relationship was obtained by numerical regression. Research results indicated that the residual stress increases linearly with the compression stress while the cohesive stress increased at first and then decreased. The research found that the friction coefficient of SCC was much smaller than NC due to the lack of interlocking effect. Utilizing the compression-shear strength of SCC, the material failure criteria of SCC were proposed from the view of shear failure strength and octahedral stress space, which could fit the experimental results confidently following the mathematical regression analysis. The comparison with data from other literature shows favorable consistence with the obtained criteria. The results of the study could be beneficial complement in engineering practices where SCC was applicable.

Recycling Aggregates for Self-Compacting Concrete Production: A Feasible Option.

Project description:The use of construction and demolition wastes (C&DW) is a trending future option for the sustainability of construction. In this context, a number of works deal with the use of recycled concrete aggregates to produce concrete for structural and non-structural purposes. Nowadays, an important number of C&DW management plants in the European Union (EU) and other countries have developed robust protocols to obtain high-quality coarse recycled aggregates that comply with different European standards in order to be used to produce new concrete. The development of self-compacting concrete (SCC) is another way to boost the sustainability of construction, due to the important reduction of energy employed. Using recycled aggregates is a relatively recent scientific area, however, studies on this material in the manufacture of self-compacting concrete have proven the feasibility thereof for conventional structural elements as well as high-performance and complex structural elements, densely reinforced structures, difficult-to-access formwork and difficult-to-vibrate elements. This paper presents an original study on the use of coarse recycled concrete aggregate (CRA) to obtain self-compacting concrete. Concrete with substitution ratios of 20%, 50% and 100% are compared with a control concrete. The purpose of this comparison is to check the influence of CRA on fresh SCC as well as its physical and mechanical properties. The parameters studied are material characterization, self-compactability, compressive strength, and tensile and flexural strength of the resulting concrete. The results conclude that it is feasible to use CRA for SCC production with minimal losses in the characteristics.

Potential of Stainless Steel Slag Waste in Manufacturing Self-Compacting Concrete.

Project description:The volume of slags generated from the steel industry is a source of possible resources which is constantly increasing. Specifically, in the production of stainless steel, specific and singular slags with unique characteristics are obtained, which allows considering an approach aimed at their use in new recycling ways. This work shows the feasibility of using stainless steel slag as a substitute for limestone filler in the manufacture of self-compacting concrete. The influence of different treatments applied to slags on physical and chemical properties was studied. On the other hand, the mechanical behaviour, as well as the durability acquired in self-compacting concrete, has been analysed. Very encouraging results were obtained, since this research demonstrates the possible application of this stainless steel slag as a construction material, improving sustainability and promoting circular economy processes, which are achieved through the minimisation of the waste disposal and accumulation.

Simulated data on bond of steel reinforcement in self-compacting concrete.

Project description:In this paper, the data were simulated using the bond model, proposed in a previously published research article of the author, to predict the peak bond stress in self-compacting concrete (SCC). The parameters considered were the concrete compressive strength, the geometrical properties of the reinforcing bar, and the confining reinforcement. The data consisted of 500 simulations for various concrete grades (C12, C16, C20, C25, C30, C35, C40, C45, and C50) and reinforcing bar diameters (10, 12, 16, 20, and 25 mm). Exploratory data analysis (EDA) was conducted and descriptive statistics were used to analyse all the data and some subsets of interest. These data can be reused in a finite element analysis software to explicitly model the bond between SCC and reinforcing bars through point-to-point or surface-to-surface contact.

Method to study cell migration under uniaxial compression.

Project description:The chemical, physical, and mechanical properties of the extracellular environment have a strong effect on cell migration. Aspects such as pore size or stiffness of the matrix influence the selection of the mechanism used by cells to propel themselves, including by pseudopods or blebbing. How a cell perceives its environment and how such a cue triggers a change in behavior are largely unknown, but mechanics is likely to be involved. Because mechanical conditions are often controlled by modifying the composition of the environment, separating chemical and physical contributions is difficult and requires multiple controls. Here we propose a simple method to impose a mechanical compression on individual cells without altering the composition of the matrix. Live imaging during compression provides accurate information about the cell's morphology and migratory phenotype. Using Dictyostelium as a model, we observe that a compression of the order of 500 Pa flattens the cells under gel by up to 50%. This uniaxial compression directly triggers a transition in the mode of migration from primarily pseudopodial to bleb driven in <30 s. This novel device is therefore capable of influencing cell migration in real time and offers a convenient approach with which to systematically study mechanotransduction in confined environments.

Prediction of the compressive strength of high-performance self-compacting concrete by an ultrasonic-rebound method based on a GA-BP neural network.

Project description:To address the problem of low accuracy and poor robustness of in situ testing of the compressive strength of high-performance self-compacting concrete (SCC), a genetic algorithm (GA)-optimized backpropagation neural network (BPNN) model was established to predict the compressive strength of SCC. Experiments based on two concrete nondestructive testing methods, i.e., ultrasonic pulse velocity and Schmidt rebound hammer, were designed and test sample data were obtained. A neural network topology with two input nodes, 19 hidden nodes, and one output node was constructed, and the initial weights and thresholds of the resulting traditional BPNN model were optimized using GA. The results showed a correlation coefficient of 0.967 between the values predicted by the established BPNN model and the test values, with an RMSE of 3.703, compared to a correlation coefficient of 0.979 between the values predicted by the GA-optimized BPNN model and the test values, with an RMSE of 2.972. The excellent agreement between the predicted and test values demonstrates the model can accurately predict the compressive strength of SCC and hence reduce the cost and time for SCC compressive strength testing.

ANN-Based Fatigue Strength of Concrete under Compression.

Project description:When concrete is subjected to cycles of compression, its strength is lower than the statically determined concrete compressive strength. This reduction is typically expressed as a function of the number of cycles. In this work, we study the reduced capacity as a function of a given number of cycles by means of artificial neural networks. We used an input database with 203 datapoints gathered from the literature. To find the optimal neural network, 14 features of neural networks were studied and varied, resulting in the optimal neural net. This proposed model resulted in a maximum relative error of 5.1% and a mean relative error of 1.2% for the 203 datapoints. The proposed model resulted in a better prediction (mean tested to predicted value = 1.00 with a coefficient of variation 1.7%) as compared to the existing code expressions. The model we developed can thus be used for the design and the assessment of concrete structures and provides a more accurate assessment and design than the existing methods.
