Impact of early-age exposure to power ultrasound on the micromechanical properties of hardened cement paste
Martin Chaigne, Sébastien Manneville, Michael Haist +2
Cement paste serves as the universal binder in concrete, formed by mixing water with Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC). In its fresh state, cement paste is a suspension in which the i…
Self-Propulsion of floating ice blocks caused by melting in water
Michael Berhanu, Amit Dawadi, Martin Chaigne +2
We show that floating ice blocks with asymmetric shapes can self-propel with significant speeds due to buoyancy driven currents caused by melting. In water baths with temperatures…
Dissolution-driven propulsion of floating solids
Martin Chaigne, Michael Berhanu, Arshad Kudrolli
We show that unconstrained asymmetric dissolving solids floating in a fluid can move rectilinearly as a result of attached density currents which occur along their inclined surface…
