FLOW ANALYSIS OF FRESH CONCRETE IN TRUCK AGITATOR BY VISUALIZATION TECHNIQUE

Measurement of Workability of Fresh Concrete Using a Mixing Truck

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the workability of fresh portland cement concrete while it is still in the mixing truck by determining fundamental rheological parameters (plastic viscosity and yield stress). Nine concrete mixtures with different values of yield stress and plastic viscosity were tested in a concrete truck. The measurements made with the truck were based on the ty...

Computational Homogenization of Fresh Concrete Flow Around Reinforcing Bars

Motivated by casting of fresh concrete in reinforced concrete structures, we introduce a numerical model of a steady-state non-Newtonian fluid flow through a porous domain. Our approach combines homogenization techniques to represent the reinforced domain by the Darcy law with an interfacial coupling of the Stokes and Darcy flows through the Beavers-Joseph-Saffman conditions. The ensuing two-sc...

اندیشمندان و صاحب نظران علوم اجتماعی بر این باورند که مرحله تازه ای در تاریخ جوامع بشری اغاز شده است. ویژگیهای این جامعه نو را می توان پدیده هایی از جمله اقتصاد اطلاعاتی جهانی ، هندسه متغیر شبکه ای، فرهنگ مجاز واقعی ، توسعه حیرت انگیز فناوری های دیجیتال، خدمات پیوسته و نیز فشردگی زمان و مکان برشمرد. از سوی دیگر قدرت به عنوان موضوع اصلی علم سیاست جایگاه مهمی در روابط انسانی دارد، قدرت و بازتولید...

Visualization of Concrete Slump Flow Using the Kinect Sensor

Workability is regarded as one of the important parameters of high-performance concrete and monitoring it is essential in concrete quality management at construction sites. The conventional workability test methods are basically based on length and time measured by a ruler and a stopwatch and, as such, inevitably involves human error. In this paper, we propose a 4D slump test method based on di...
