Structural build-up at rest in the induction and acceleration periods of OPC
Luca Michel, Lex Reiter, Antoine Sanner +2
Structural build-up in fresh cement paste at rest is characterized by time evolutions of storage modulus and yield stress, which both increase linearly in time during the induction…

Evolution of Strength and Failure of SCC during Early Hydration
Linus K. Mettler, Falk K. Wittel, Robert J. Flatt +1
The early strength evolution of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) is studied by a set of non-standard mechanical tests for compressive, tensile, shear and bending failure. The resu…

En route to a multi-model scheme for clinker comminution with chemical grinding aids
R. K. Mishra, D. Geissbuhler, H. A. Carmona +7
We present a multi-model simulation approach, targeted at understanding the behavior of comminution and the effect of grinding aids (GAs) in industrial cement mills. On the atomist…
