Development of a ReaxFF reactive force field for ettringite and study of its mechanical failure modes from reactive dynamics simulations.
Ettringite is a hexacalcium aluminate trisulfate hydrate mineral that forms during Portland cement hydration. Its presence plays an important role in controlling the setting rate of the highly reactive aluminate phases in cement paste and has also been associated with severe cracking in cured hardened cement. To understand how it forms and how its properties influence those of hardened cement a...
متن کاملStudy of elastic and piezoelectric properties of two-dimensional hexagonal III-V binary compounds: First-principles calculations
In this work, using plane wave method in the framework of density-functional theory, we calculated clamped-ion and relaxed-ion elasticity, stress and strain piezoelectric independent coefficients for seven stable combinations of honeycomb monolayers XY (X:B,Al,Ga,In ; Y:N,P,As,Sb). The coefficients calculations by two methods of density functional perturbation theory (DFPT) and finite differenc...
متن کاملFirst-principles elasticity of monocarboaluminate hydrates
The elasticity of monocarboaluminate hydrates, 3CaO·Al2O3·CaCO3·xH2O (x = 11 or 8), has been investigated by first-principles calculations. Previous experimental study revealed that the fully hydrated monocarboaluminate (x = 11) exhibits exceptionally low compressibility compared to other reported calcium aluminate hydrates. This stiff hydration product can contribute to the strength of concret...
متن کاملPressure-Induced Phase Transition and Mechanical Properties of Mg2Sr Intermetallics
A pressure-induced phase transition of Mg₂Sr intermetallics from the low-pressure C14-type phase to an orthorhombic phase (space group Cmcm, Z = 4) at a high pressure of 21.0 GPa was firstly predicted using first-principles calculations combined with unbiased swarm structure searching techniques. The phase transition was identified as a first-order nature with a volume drop of 4.7%, driven by t...
متن کاملFirst-Principles Investigations on Structural and Elastic Properties of Orthorhombic TiAl under Pressure
The effects of pressure on the structural and elastic properties of orthorhombic TiAl are investigated using first-principles calculations based on density functional theory within the projector augmented wave method. The calculated lattice parameters at 0 GPa are in good agreement with the available experimental data. The pressure dependence of the normalized lattice parameters and the single ...
