Direct Multilayer Adsorption of Vapor in Solids with Multiscale Porosity and Hindered Adsorbed Layers in Nanopores
Zdenek P. Bazant, Hoang Thai Nguyen
Hindered adsorbed layers completely filling the nanopores must cause significant deviations from the classical BET isotherms for multimolecular adsorption of vapor in porous solids…
Branching of Hydraulic Cracks in Gas or Oil Shale with Closed Natural Fractures: How to Master Permeability
Saeed Rahimi-Agham, Viet-Tuan Chau, Huynjin Lee +7
While the hydraulic fracturing technology, aka fracking (or fraccing, frac), has become highly developed and astonishingly successful, a consistent formulation of the associated fr…
Statistical Extraction of Useful Concrete Creep Data from Imperfect Customary Tests
Mohammad Rasoolinejad, Saeed Rahimi-Aghdam, Zdenek P. Bazant
The reporting and evaluation of creep tests of concrete is complicated by the fact that creep is significant even for the shortest observable load durations. Compared to the strain…
Critique of Critical Shear Crack Theory (CSCT) for fib Model Code Articles on Shear Strength and Size Effect of RC Beams
Abdullah Donmez, Zdenek P. Bazant
The size effect of Muttoni et al.'s CSCT is shown to be very close and asymptotically identical to the energetic size effect law (SEL) extensively verified experimentally and theor…
