The curing regimes included the constant temperature (20, 40, 60 and 80 ℃) and variable temperature (simulated internal temperature of mass concrete with 60 ℃ peak). The results indicate that constant temperature of 20 ℃ is beneficial to substitution ofAl3+ for Si4+, and AI/Si ratio changes to be steady after 180 d. The increase of Al/Si ratio at 40 ℃is less than that at 20℃ for 28 d. The other three regimes of high temperature increase Al/Si ratio only before 3 d, on the contrary to that from 3 to 28 d. However, the 20 ℃ curing stage from 28 to 180 d at variable temperature regime, is beneficial to the increase of AI/Si ratio which is still lower than that at constant temperature regime of 20 ℃ for the same age. A nonlinear relation exists between the Al/Si ratio and temperature variation or mean chain length (MCL) of C-S-H gels, furthermore, the amount ofAl3+ which can occupy the bridging tetrahedra sites in C-S-H structure is insufficient in hardened Portland cement pastes.展开更多

OPC paste (w/c ratio 0.27) was hydrated for 28 days then fired up to 750°C for 2 hours (heating rate 10°C/min). The relative mass percent of calcium hydrates and portlandite was estimated by calculations derived from TGA results. Beyond 450°C, the percentage of portlandite sharply diminishes and C-S-H progressively decomposes into C2S and C3S until complete loss of calcium hydrates content occurs at 750°C. An increase of the total porosity, severe loss in mechanical strength and propagation of harmful cracks occurs. The thermal shock as a result of cooling of the heated cement paste and the rehydration of lime enhance the propagation of harmful cracks.展开更多

Additionally, molecular dynamics simulation was performed to study the aluminum coordination status and interaction of sulfate ions in C-(A)-S-H gel. The results showed significant changes in the microstructural evolution of C-(A)-S-H gel in Portland cement paste. Sulfate attack has decalcifying and dealuminizing effect on C-(A)-S-H gel which is evident from increase in mean chain length(MCL) and decrease in Ca/Si & Al[4]/Si ratios of C-(A)-S-H gel. Additionally, Molecular dynamics simulation proves that Al[4] substituted in silicate chains of C-(A)-S-H gel is thermodynamically metastable, which may explain its migration from the silicate chains and transformation to Al[6], thus lowering the Al[4]/Si ratio of C-(A)-S-H gel. SO4^(2-)ions can carry the interfacial Ca^(2+) ions into the pore solution by the diffusion-absorption-desorption process, which unravels the mechanism of sulfate attack on C-(A)-S-H gel.展开更多

The electrode was made from mixed of carbon powder and paraffin in micropipette tip with diameter of 4 ram. This method consists of two steps. The first step is the formation and adsorptive accumulation of metal ion with chelator at the electrode surface. The second step is stripping the complex from the electrode surface into the solution. The stripping step generates current which is recorded as voltammogram. The optimum conditions of instrumental parameter obtained were accumulation potential of 600 mV, accumulation time of 120 seconds, and pH of solution of 5.5. In this research, the limit detection obtained was 2.3348 × 10^-12 M (3.24× 10^-11μg/L) with sensitivity of 16.52 (nA/10u M) and the precision of standard solution of La3+ with concentration of 2 × 10^-12 M, 4× 10^-12 M, 6 × 10^-12 M, 8 × 10^-12 M, and 10 × 10^-12M were 3.50%, 9.88%, 7.19%, 7.48% and 1.85% respectively. The linierity of this method is very good with correlation coefficient is 0.9780. Recovery percentage from La3+ with concentration of 6× 10^-12 M and 10 × 10^-12 M are 108.84% and 91.51%, respectively.展开更多

It is found that C-S-H has self similarity trait from scanning scale 20 um×20 um down to 300 nm× 300 nm, and the feature of C-S-H at large scale is very similar to those smaller scales. It can be concluded that C-S-H is composed with some fundamental spherical globule, the fundamental globules agglomerate into bigger ones, moreover the bigger ones agglomerate into even bigger one. A C-S-H globule fractal model was put forward to describe the self similarity of the C-S-H globule, which can be used to reveal how the C-S-H globule contacts with each other.展开更多

文摘Using the Cut And Paste(CAP)method,we invert the focal mechanism of 38 moderate earthquakes(M_(S)≥3.0)recorded by Yunnan seismic network and analyze the corresponding focal mechanism consistency based on the minimum spatial rotation angle.Our results indicate that the M_(S)6.4 mainshock is induced by a lateral strike slip fault(with a rake angle of~-165°)and a little normal-faulting component event along a nearly vertical plane(dipping angle~79° and strike~138°).Combining our results with high resolution catalog,we argue that the seismogenic fault of this earthquake sequence is a secondary fault western to the major Weixi-Qiaohou-Weishan fault.The focal mechanism evolution can be divided into three periods.During the first period,the foreshock sequence,the focal mechanism consistency is the highest(KA<36°);during the second period which is shortly after the mainshock,the focal mechanism shows strong variation with KA ranging from 8° to 110°;during the third period,the seismicity becomes weak and the focal mechanism of the earthquakes becomes more consistent than the second period(18°<KA<73°).We suggest that the KA,to some extent,represents the coherence between local tectonic stress regime and the stress state of each individual earthquake.Furthermore,high focal mechanism consistency and high linearity of seismic distribution may serve as indicators for the identification of foreshock sequence.
