Abstract:Predicting adiabatic temperature rise is essentially useful for investigating thermal cracking potential especially in early stage of mass concrete. Existing prediction methods and models have some problems such as constant thermal properties are mostly utilized for predicting temperature rise. This study is aimed to develop time-dependent models for predicting hydration degrees of cement and slag, free water amount, specific heat, and total heat generation of concrete incorporating slag. These models are then… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
