Abstract
One of the main problems associated with the manufacture of composite materials by liquid moulding (injection, infusion, etc.) is the generation of porosity. The optimization of the properties of the composites passes through a better understanding of the mechanisms of pore formation [...]
Abstract
Thermal conductivity plays a significant role in efficient energy usage, especially in the construction field. Low thermal conductivity is preferable because lower thermal conductivity will increase the thermal insulation provided by the concrete and reduce the heating and cooling [...]Abstract
This study explores the behavior of blended mortars of low reactive bottom ashes (BA) and ordinary Portland cement (OPC) in an alkaline solution. Mortar mixtures incorporating OPC with different replacement levels (0% to 30% mass) were studied. Isothermal conduction calorimetric [...]
Abstract
This study aim at understanding the void formation, transport mechanisms and porosity evolution during OoA consolidation process. The laminates were conformed by stacking and compacting of prepregs by two different technologies: manual (Hand lay-up, HLU) and automatic (Automated [...]
