Special applications like pumping, spraying or printing of concrete require the precise adjustment of very specific rheological properties at different time steps during the casting process. Superplasticizers such as polycarboxylate ethers (PCE) can be used to obtain the required flowability, which, possibly in combination with additional rheology modifying admixtures, generate the required specified consistency. However, after the application, the concrete should change the rheological properties immediately in order to avoid deformations at rest. Therefore, the use of accelerators can be effective. Accelerators influence the hydration of cementitious materials, and thus the rheological properties over the course of time and the setting.
In this paper, the influence of different accelerators on the rheology and early hydration of cement paste as well as the interaction of accelerator and PCE are presented. Methods like rheometry, needle penetration tests and practical Tests like spread flow were applied. The used accelerators showed accelerating behavior on the cement pastes without and in the presence of PCE. At the same time an influence on the rheology could be observed. This effect was less in the mixes with PCE, especially at the highest water/cement ratio (w/c).
Properties of interstitial liquid phase in cement paste, including the species and concentrations of polymers and ion etc., play an important role for the rheological properties of cementitious materials. In order to better understand their effect, an inert model substance, spherical silica beads (SBs) with defined surface and granulometry were used in the presence of electrolytes (CaCl2) and/or different polymers, including polycarboxylate superplasticizer (PCE) and polyethylene glycol (PEG). It was found the presence of Ca2+ greatly increases the viscosity and yield stress of silica beads paste (SBP), which is proportional to the [Ca2+]. For the effect of PCE, the addition of PCE is beneficial to the flowability of SBP, but a high dosage of PCE leads to a reversal effect. Furthermore, the yield stress firstly increases and then decreases with increasing [Ca2+] under the same dosage of PCE. The addition of PEG always increases the yield stress of SBP, regardless of the ion concentration and the presence or not of PCE.
Unternehmen der chemischen Industrie müssen neuen Pfade beschreiten, um in einem veränderten Umfeld erfolgreich bestehen zu können. Dazu gehört insbesondere, das Potenzial digitaler Technologien zu nutzen. Die volle Integration und intelligente Vernetzung von Systemen und Prozessen kommt allerdings nur zögerlich voran. Dieser Beitrag ist ein Loblied auf die Feldebene. Er möchte dazu ermutigen, die Digitalisierung der Prozessindustrie auf Basis smarter Sensorik, Aktorik und Kommunikation ganzheitlicher zu denken und informiert über aktuelle technische Perspektiven, wie das Ein-Netzwerk-Paradigma, Ad-hoc-Vernetzungen, Edge-Computing, FPGAs, virtuelle Maschinen oder Blockchain. Diese geben smarter Sensorik, Aktorik und Kommunikation eine völlig neue Perspektive.

Das Ziel dieses Kapitels besteht darin, die Rolle von Konformitätsbewertung für die Erhöhung der Cybersicherheit von Produkten, Dienstleistungen und Prozessen zu betrachten. Dazu wird der Begriff Cybersicherheit beleuchtet sowie ausgewählte Cybersicherheitsnormen kurz vorgestellt. Im Folgenden wird der regulative europäische Rahmen für die Konformitätsbewertung aus ordnungspolitischer Sicht sowie der aktuelle Verordnungsentwurf zum Cybersecurity Act dargestellt und kritsch beleuchtet.
Although concrete itself is not a combustible material, concrete mixtures with high density, such has high-performance concretes (HPCs), are susceptible to significant damage during fires due to explosive spalling. Past research has shown that the inclusion of polymer fibres in high density concrete can significantly mitigate this fire damage. The exact mechanisms causing this increased spalling resistance are not yet fully under-stood, but it is thought that the fibres facilitate moisture transport during fire exposure, which in turn contributes to relief of internal stresses in the spalling-susceptible region. In this study, X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) was applied to observe the interaction between polymer fibres and cracking during thermal exposure. For this purpose, two concrete samples containing different polymer fibre types were subjected to incremental application of a defined thermal exposure. CT images were acquired before and after each thermal exposure and powerful image processing tools were used to segment the various material components. This enabled a detailed analysis of crack formation and propagation as well as the visualization and quantification of polymer fibre characteristics within the concrete. The results demonstrated that the orientation of both fibres and cracks in polymer-fibre reinforced concrete tend to be anisotropic. The results also indicated that crack geometry characteristics may be correlated with fibre orientation, with cracks tending to run parallel to fibre beds. Clear quantitative relationships were also observed between heating and increasing cracking levels, expressed in terms of both crack surface area and crack volume.

This chapter report the most recent experimental results on mechanical behaviour at high temperature of high-performance concretes. After a short introduction, subsection 5.2 describes the main testing methods that were used in the analysed studies.
Sub-section 5.3 collects and compares; the temperature-dependency of the compressive strength and modulus of elastici1ty of many experimental studies. The influence of parameters such as the initial compressive strength, the type of aggregate, the presence of additions, the W/C ratio, the moishrre content and the way the mechanical test was performed is analysed. Sub-section 5.4 presents the experimental results obtained under a constant temperature, i.e. creep tests at high temperature.
Sub-section 5.5 presents experimental results obtained under increasing temperahrre.
These results allow assessing the free thennal strain of concrete (when no mechanical load is applied) and the so-called "transient the1mal strain". Finally, subsection 5.6 collects and analyses the few results conceming the temperature-dependency of the tensile strength of high-perfo1mance concretes.
Turning maneuvers performed by railway cars, imply the development of steering forces at the wheel-track interface, whose magnitude depends on a set of properties and operating conditions related to the vehicle and to the infrastructure, including track´s turning radius and vehicle´s yaw resistance.
Yaw resistance integrates two components. On the one hand, there is the yaw stiffness, as a function of the different vehicle suspension components. On the other hand, there is the dry friction at the centre plate. Such yaw resistance of the car´s bogies, has a two-contradictory effect on railway performance, as a flexible bogie reduces the level of the steering forces, but at the same time, it increases the probability of having hunting instability. A variable yaw resistance, with high values at straight track segments and low values at curved tracks, seems to be an interesting design. In this paper, a variable friction Center plate is proposed, aiming at maximizing the yaw resistance on straight track segments, and minimizing such resistance at curved tracks. The conceptual design of this device is described, together with its ability to reduce the yaw torque. Benefits of this device, regarding the transport energy consumption and the magnitude of the steering forces, are estimated on the order of 1 to 10, when comparing the proposed design with the standard center plate design.
