Chemometric assessment of mechano-chemically activated zeolites for application in the construction composites
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
Natural zeolites of clinoptilolite type from seven deposits were submitted to mechano-chemical activation in a Retsch ultra -centrifugal mill. The zeolite types and activation parameters were altered during the experiment ...
The effect of alternations in mineral additives (zeolite, bentonite, fly ash) on physico-chemical behavior of Portland cement based binders
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
Instrumental analyses accompanied by analytical modeling tools were employed to assess physico-chemical changes induced by variations in chemical composition of cementitious composites, i.e. mortar binders. Coal combustion ...
Validation of energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence procedure for determination of major and trace elements present in the cement based composites
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2019)
Adjustment and subsequent validation of energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence (ED-XRF) method for cement based binders with addition of mineral raw materials (fly ash, zeolite and bentonite) was conducted. Eighteen chemical ...
Chemometric analysis of the influence of mechanical activation on the mica quality parameters
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
The differences in the set of the process parameters measured before and after mica mechanical activation and their influence on the grain size distribution related characteristics have been studied. The modification of ...
Artificial fly ash based aggregates properties influence on lightweight concrete performances
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
The effect of the application of pelletized fly ash based aggregates obtained through different processing techniques on the behavior of lightweight concretes was analyzed. Experimental program implied production of four ...
What to expect from heavy clay?
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
The need of testing the quality of brickclay arises in all brick factories, with the opening of new deposits. The analyses are both time and economically consuming, so the aim of this study was to shorten the procedure ...
Application of neural networks in determination of compressive strength of concrete
(Revista Romana de Materiale/ Romanian Journal of Materials, 2012)
This paper presents the optimization of concrete mixtures composition related to a physical property and the process of production of trial mix design by using the multi-layered feed-forward neural networks. This optimization ...
Determination of the effective diffusion coefficient
(Revista Romana de Materiale/ Romanian Journal of Materials, 2011)
The equation for drying kinetics is obtained, base on the analytical solution of the differential equation with a boundary condition in the form of the flux. This equation was initially developed by G. Efremov. In this ...
Developing Cost Estimation Models for Road Rehabilitation and Reconstruction: Case Study of Projects in Europe and Central Asia
(ASCE - American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)
This paper presents the development of prediction models for the unit costs of road works that could be applied to strategic planning of road works at the network level. A specialized data set was used, which was generated ...
Drying simulation of shrinkable clay tiles using variable diffusivity model
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd, Stafa-Zurich, 2014)
This paper represents the upgrade of our previous study in which we have presented a model for simulation of the drying kinetic and estimation of the effective moisture diffusivity of clay tiles using a constant diffusivity ...
