From the development of a mechanical device capable of performing the slump test of concrete, this work evaluated the equipment's ability to simulate the test recommended by norm. Slumps using the standard test and the ...

This work presents reliable empirical correlations of slump and spread measurements with yield stress of different materials based on the automated slump test methodology (capable of monitoring the transient regime of the ...

In order to mitigate mistakes, an automated slump test apparatus was developed for obtaining the slump measurement. Initially, tests involving eight different compositions of carbopol gel (used as a test material for ...

The current work shows the feasibility of using the mini-slump test to assesses the workability and rheological properties of MK-based geopolymeric pastes. The study aimed to define standard test procedures, including video ...

O ensaio de abatimento de tronco de cone, desenvolvido inicialmente como ferramenta de controle de qualidade para avaliar a consistência de materiais cimentícios e com grande aplicação no setor da construção civil, tem ...

Yield stress measurements were carried out on slurries prepared from five different ore samples of varying contents of bitumen and fines in the sand fraction. The rheological measurements were performed using the vane, ...

In the present study, the effects of a sieved sugar cane bagasse ash (SCBA) and fly ash (FA) on the rheological properties of pastes and mortars were investigated. Cement pastes and mortar mixtures were designed as single ...

The ever-growing global production of glass generates high waste percentages, the vast majority of which does not get recycled hence increasing the concern on its environmental impact. Studies on the pozzolanic properties ...

La lesión muscular en la zona isquiotibial es el tipo de lesión más frecuente que se presenta en los jugadores de fútbol. Los isquiotibiales son la región muscular con mayor predisposición a sufrir una ruptura debido a sus ...
