Computational modeling of fresh SCC flow is a comprehensive and time consuming task. The computational time is additionally increased when simulating casting of reinforced sections, where each single reinforcement bar has to be modeled. In order to deal with this issue and to decrease the computational time, an innovative approach of treating a reinforcement network as a porous medium is applied. This contribution presents the model for concrete flow through reinforced sections, based on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), coupling a single-phase flow model for SCC and a continuum macroscopic model for porous medium. In the last part of this paper, numerical simulations are compared with experimental results obtained on model fluids.
A major requirement on self-compacting concrete (SCC) is the resistance to any kind of separation. In the presented studies the segregation behavior of aggregates was analyzed systematically. The rheology of selfcompacting mortars was dealt with at first. Following, the segregation of particles of different size, shape and density in various mortars was examined. The aim was to find an analytical relation to estimate the risk of sedimentation, using the characteristics of the particles and those of the mortars. The classification of the aggregates according to their potential segregation is rather simple. But the description of the segregation resistance of the mortar is much more difficult. It is not possible to evaluate a mortar solely based on the rheological properties. The mixture composition must always be considered as well. Tests on concrete samples were conducted additionally to determine the influence of the overall system of SCC on the sedimentation of the aggregates.
Stabilising admixtures are commonly used additives in repair mortars and grouts. Beyond this, such type of admixture is increasingly used in concrete and other cementitious materials. In particular when fresh mortar or concrete properties have to be adjusted reliably, stabilising agents can be beneficially used to improve workability and robustness of the mixture. The mode of operation of these admixtures varies, rather affecting either the liquid phase or the solid particles in the dispersion, both causing strong interactions with the mortar or concrete system, and significant changes in their rheological behaviour. Furthermore, these are strongly affected by the environmental temperature during the casting process. In the paper the effect of temperature on the performance of stabilising agents in cementitious systems is presented and how performance changes affect fresh and hardening mortar or concrete properties. Particular attention is placed on interactions between stabilising agents and superplasticizers. Results are discussed with special focus on self-compacting concrete.
