3D printing eco-friendly concrete containing under-utilised and waste solids as aggregates (2021, unknown): “A value of 1000 μ m/m at 24 h has been proposed in the literature [52] to characterise the high risk of cracking of concrete at an early age.”
Effects of nano- and micro-limestone addition on early-age properties of ultra-high-performance concrete (2013, background): “At that low level of w/c, this free water increases the internal relative humidity, leading to lower capillary stresses according to Kelvin’s law [44], and consequently reducing the amount of autogenous shrinkage [45].”
Effect of drying conditions on autogenous shrinkage in ultra-high performance concrete at early-age (2011, background): “As hydration proceeds, the menisci radius will decrease, leading to higher capillary stresses, and consequently to higher self-desiccation shrinkage [9, 10].”
Early-Age Cracking in Concrete: Causes, Consequences, Remedial Measures, and Recommendations (2018, background): “Holt and Leivo [12] found out that humidity, air temperature, and wind velocity have a direct relationship with the evaporation rate.”
Effect of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) on the strength development of cementitious materials (2019, background): “volume decrease is termed as autogenous shrinkage and is related to the chemistry and changes in the internal structure [1,2].”
Assessment of durability of recycled aggregate concrete produced by two-stage mixing approach (2007, background): “Deformation is a complex phenomenon which is influenced by many factors including the constituents, the temperature and relative humidity of the environment, the age when the concrete is subjected to the drying environment and the size of the structure or member [3] [46] [47] [48] [51] [52] [53].”
