Brittle Matrix Composites 7
The International Symposium in Brittle Matrix Composites October 13-15, 2003 covers a wide spectrum of topics including cement based composites, ceramic composites and brittle polymer matrix composites. In the papers various topics and issues are considered such as: analytical and numerical studies related to the design of composites, prediction of behaviour and verification of strength and stability, testing methods, manufacturing processes and repair, environmental effects and durability assessment. The present volume of 55 papers proves that there are still many problems in the field of brittle matrix composites deserving theoretical and experimental investigations and that new solutions to these problems are needed for practical application in civil engineering, industrial structures, machinery and other domains.
Cement-Based Composites
This Special Issue on “Cement-Based Composites: Advancements in Development and Characterization” presents the latest research and advances in the field of cement-based composites. This Special Issue covers a variety of experimental studies related to fiber-reinforced, photocatalytic, lightweight, and sustainable cement-based composites. Moreover, simulation studies are presented in this Special Issue to provide fundamental knowledge of designing and optimizing the properties of cementitious composites. The presented publications in this Special Issue show the most recent technology in the cement-based composite field.
Alkali Activated Materials
This is a State of the Art Report resulting from the work of RILEM Technical Committee 224-AAM in the period 2007-2013. The Report summarises research to date in the area of alkali-activated binders and concretes, with a particular focus on the following areas: binder design and characterisation, durability testing, commercialisation, standardisation, and providing a historical context for this rapidly-growing research field.
Advances in Asset Management and Condition Monitoring
This book gathers select contributions from the 32nd International Congress and Exhibition on Condition Monitoring and Diagnostic Engineering Management (COMADEM 2019), held at the University of Huddersfield, UK in September 2019, and jointly organized by the University of Huddersfield and COMADEM International. The aim of the Congress was to promote awareness of the rapidly emerging interdisciplinary areas of condition monitoring and diagnostic engineering management. The contents discuss the latest tools and techniques in the multidisciplinary field of performance monitoring, root cause failure modes analysis, failure diagnosis, prognosis, and proactive management of industrial systems. There is a special focus on digitally enabled asset management and covers several topics such as condition monitoring, maintenance, structural health monitoring, non-destructive testing and other allied areas. Bringing together expert contributions from academia and industry, this book will be a valuable resource for those interested in latest condition monitoring and asset management techniques.
WASTES: Solutions, Treatments and Opportunities IV
WASTES: Solutions, Treatments and Opportunities IV contains selected papers presented at the 6th edition of the International Conference Wastes: Solutions, Treatments and Opportunities, that took place on 6-8 September 2023, in Coimbra, Portugal. The Wastes conference, which takes place biennially, is a prime forum for sharing innovations, technological developments and sustainable solutions for waste management and recycling sectors worldwide, with the participation of experts from academia and industry. The papers included in this book cover a wide range of topics, including: - Management of waste streams - Environmental, economic and social aspects in waste management - Logistics, policie...
Precast Concrete Railway Track Systems
In 1986, the FIP Commission on Prefabrication issued the state-of-art report "Concrete Railway Sleepers", which included design considerations, manufacturing methods, rail fastening systems and field performance. During the two decades since that report, precast concrete has gained importance in the field of railway track systems for plain track, switches and crossings, tunnels and other applications. Developments in production methods for concrete sleepers in switch and crossing layouts to cope with the complex geometry and the industry's confidence in their performance have contributed to the huge increase in the use of this type of sleeper. The use of slab track for high-speed track has a...
Role of Interfaces in Concrete
Concrete will be the key material for Mankind to create the built environment of the next millennium. The requirements of this infrastructure will be both demanding, in terms of technical performance and economy, and yet be greatly varied, from architectural masterpieces to the simplest of utilities. Role of interfaces in concrete forms the Proceedings of the one day International Seminar held during the Congress, Creating with Concrete, 6-10 Spetember 1999, organised by the Concrete Technology unit, Univeristy of Dundee. It deals with the role of interfaces in the prediction of durability and their effects on concrete characteristics and composite action. The themes of the seminar were Basic Mechanisms and achieving performance.
Cement Combinations for Durable Concrete
The Concrete Technology Unit of the University of Dundee organized a congress, to address the changes required to turn opportunities into beneficial practices, in 10 events. This book forms the proceedings of the first event, and deals with issues such as materials processing technology; Portland and non-Portland cements; and others.
Chess Results, 1964-1967
This is a continuation of a series of comprehensive chronological reference works listing the results of men's chess competitions all over the world--individual and team matches. The present volume covers 1964 through 1967. Entries record location and, when available, the group that sponsored the event. First and last names of players are included whenever possible and are standardized for easy reference. Compiled from contemporary sources such as newspapers, periodicals, tournament records and match books, this work contains 1,204 tournament crosstables and 158 match scores. It is indexed by events and by players.
