Researchers have, for the first time, used a 'micropillar compression' technique to characterize the micro-scale strength of cement, allowing for the development of cement with desirable strength ...

Extensive laboratory testing and data analyses reveal that the oil and gas industry can reliably estimate foamed-cement sample compressive strength, if the design engineer knows the compressive ...

The new brick can be manufactured with a high density, compressive strength, tensile strength and Young's modulus (the ability to withstand changes under lengthwise compression). Researchers led by a ...

If you enjoyed this article, I’d like to ask for your support. Scientific American has served as an advocate for science and industry for 180 years, and right now may be the most critical moment in ...

Rattan—cement composites were manufactured using different particle sizes (0.60, 0.85 and 1.18 mm) of untreated Eremospatha macrocarpa cane and those treated in cold water using cement—sand ratio of 1 ...
