Um das grundlegende Verhalten des Betons zu verstehen, wird eine zerstörungsfreie Messmethode benötigt, die in der Lage ist, nicht nur Änderungen des Materials wie Feuchtigkeitsumverteilung, Korrosion und Dehnung zu messen, sondern auch die innere Struktur des Materials im Dreidimensionalen aufzulösen, so dass Versagensmechanismen und Transportphänomene direkt auf bestimmte Eigenschaften der heterogenen Materialstruktur bezogen werden können. Die Röntgencomputertomographie (CT) hat sich als ideal für solche Zwecke erwiesen. Diese Präsentation demonstriert die Fähigkeiten der CT zur Identifizierung quantitativer Materialeigenschaften wie Faserorientierung, Rissoberfläche, Korrosionsverteilung und Änderungen des volumetrischen Feuchtigkeitsanteils. Durch die Beschreibung der Ergebnisse einer Reihe von Ex-situ und In-situ Testprogrammen für Bedingungen wie mechanische Belastung, Wassertransport und thermische Exposition, sind auch die Nutzungsmöglichkeiten von diesem Verfahren dargestellt.
The water-transport characteristics of concrete have a major impact on its resistance to damaging chemical processes such as Alkali-Silica-Reaction (ASR). Water transport in samples of damaged and undamaged concrete was measured using in-situ CT. The resulting measurements of water-front movement relative to time and the change in 3D-moisture distribution within the samples, are needed for calibration and validation of water-transport numerical models.
This presentation includes the results of a number of case studies of concrete properties using computed tomography (CT) in combination with various in-situ testing techniques, including those of mechanical loading, water transport, and fire. The results of these case studies demonstrate the potential of CT as an approach for obtaining unique, quantitative data about the structure of materials. This data can serve as the basis for calibrating and validating a new generation of numerical models that have a stronger foundation in micromechanical theory. This will contribute to the development of more accurate and versatile simulation approaches for concrete and other building materials.
This paper describes a novel methodology for quantitative in-situ moisture measurement without tracking agents using X-ray computed tomography (XCT). The high levels of grey-scale precision required for the measurement of moisture without tracking agents resulted in the need for an additional image calibration procedure to correct for water-related X-ray scattering and for equipment-variability related artefacts arising during in-situ testing. This calibration procedure was developed on the basis of existing principles of XCT image cor-rection. Resulting images of moisture distribution exhibit a high level of agreement with expected material behaviour. This research demonstrated that XCT can be successfully used to measure both moisture-front movement over time and changes in 3D moisture distribution within samples. This approach to moisture measurement lays the groundwork for the planned future investigation of the interaction between cracking induced by varying chemical and mechanical processes and water transport in concrete.
Die Präsentation demonstriert die Fähigkeiten der Röntgencomputertomographie (CT) zur Identifizierung quantitativer Materialeigenschaften wie Faserorientierung und Korrosionsverteilung sowie die Implementierung von CT-Daten innerhalb numerischer Simulationen. Die besondere Stärke der CT, als zerstörungsfreies Prüfverfahren, ermöglicht es, das Materialverhalten und den Versagensprozess während mechanischer, hydraulischer und thermischer Prozesse zu beobachten. Die Ergebnisse einer Reihe von Ex-situ und In-situ Testprogrammen unter Bedingungen wie mechanische Belastung, Wassertransport und thermische Exposition, stellen die Nutzungsmöglichkeiten dieser Verfahren in Kombination mit der CT in eindrucksvoller Weise dar.
Simulating fiber-reinforced concrete mechanical performance using CT-based fiber orientation data
(2019)
The main hindrance to realistic models of fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC) is the local materials property variation, which does not yet reliably allow simulations at the structural level. The idea presented in this paper makes use of an existing constitutive model, but resolves the problem of localized material variation through X-ray computed tomography (CT)-based pre-processing. First, a three-point bending test of a notched beam is considered, where pre-test fiber orientations are measured using CT. A numerical model is then built with the zone subjected to progressive damage, modeled using an orthotropic damage model. To each of the finite elements within this zone, a local coordinate system is assigned, with its longitudinal direction defined by local fiber orientations. Second, the parameters of the constitutive damage model are determined through inverse analysis using load-displacement data obtained from the test. These parameters are considered to clearly explain the material behavior for any arbitrary external action and fiber orientation, for the same geometrical properties and volumetric ratio of fibers. Third, the effectiveness of the resulting model is demonstrated using a second, “control” experiment. The results of the “control” experiment analyzed in this research compare well with the model results. The ultimate strength was predicted with an error of about 6%, while the work-of-load was predicted within 4%. It demonstrates the potential of this method for accurately predicting the mechanical performance of FRC components.
The proposed BAM project SealWasteSafe will advance the state of the art for the construction and monitoring of safe sealing systems for underground repositories of radioactive or toxic waste. During this project, a novel salt concrete exhibiting neither significant cracking nor shrinkage will be optimized for use in the sealing systems. The composition of this material will be based on alkali-activated materials, which are characterized by particularly small thermal deformations during the hardening reaction. Quality assurance and continuous monitoring systems developed during this project will be demonstrated not only for high reliability, but also for resistance to highly alkaline environments and to water intrusion along cables or at sensor locations. A variety of sensors will be used in combination with wireless Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology to record moisture, temperature, and, if necessary, corrosion activity within the sealing system. Distributed Fibre Optic Sensor (FOS) technology will also be used for strain, temperature, and moisture content measurement. Ultrasound-based measuring methods will be utilized for the detection of cracks and delaminations. Additionally, digital image correlation and acoustic emission analysis will be used for deformation measurements and crack detection. A novel borehole probe and advanced ultrasound imaging techniques will be further developed to track cracks and delaminations within the host rock in 3D. The surface-based Large Aperture Ultrasound System (LAUS) will also be utilized to detect cracks and delaminations deep below the exterior surface of the sealing system. Although the focus of this project will be on the host rock salt, the resulting technologies will be intentionally developed in a way that facilitates their adaptation to other host rocks.
The closure of underground nuclear waste disposal facilities requires reliable gas- and water-tight engineered barriers. In Germany, barriers made from salt concrete have been evaluated in full scale. While the barriers seem to fulfill the requirements regarding permeability, some unexpected cracks have been detected at the surface and at depth. In cooperation between the Federal Company for Radioactive Waste Disposal (BGE) and the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM), several experiments have been carried out to evaluate the applicability for ultrasonic measurements in crack detection and general quality assurance. Both commercial instruments and specially developed devices have been tested on site.
Using commercial ultrasonic echo devices designed for concrete inspection it was possible to detect cracks and objects in salt concrete up to a depth of 2 m. The check for delamination in shotcrete is another field of application. A unique device available at BAM, the wide aperture, deep penetration instrument LAUS, was able to locate cracks and objects up to a depth of 8 m so far, which is thought to be a record for ultrasonic echo measurements in concrete. Adapted imaging procedures, partly adopted from geophysics, helped to reveal 3D structure at depth.
In addition, we have developed ultrasonic probes to be deployed in boreholes, currently at up to 20 m depth. They can collect information on cracks and other features in a radius of about 1.5 m around the borehole in the current version and might be used in echo or transmission mode. Evaluation experiments have been performed at an experimental barrier at the ERAM site in Morsleben, Germany. The results showed several empty and injected cracks as well as built-in instrumentation. The results have been verified using borehole endoscopy as well as core examination and will be used to set up a reliable quality assurance system for engineered barriers. All instruments are based on ultrasonic shear wave transducers with a frequency range between 25 kHz and 100 kHz. Current research focuses on the improvement of the hardware (e. g. optimization of array characteristics) and imaging techniques such as Reverse Time Migration, both aiming at the improvement of depth of penetration, resolution and probability of detection.
With a goal to improve our understanding of the relationships between microstructural features and ultrasonic signal behavior, concrete specimens of varying water-to-cement ratio were imaged using X-ray computed tomography (CT), and subsequently subjected to ultrasonic testing. From the CT scans, measurements were made of cement paste density and number of interfaces. Ultrasonic signals produced using a through-transmission configuration were analyzed and fit to a diffusion model to separate absorption from scattering attenuation. The results showed that at the frequencies tested, ultrasonic dissipation rate correlated weakly with paste density, while diffusivity correlated well with number of interfaces, but only if entrained air is considered separately. Cement paste density was found to be very well predicted by diffusivity, leading to a clear power-law relationship between diffusivity and compressive strength.
This poster provides an overview of ultrasonic investigations of an engineered test barrier at ERAM Morsleben, which were completed as part of contractual work with the Bundesgesellschaft für Endlagerung mbH (BGE). This includes both experiments with the Large Aperture Ultrasound System (LAUS) and the ultrasonic borehole array. Also included in the poster is a description of the planned BAM thematic project “SealWasteSafe”. In particular, the proposed geopolymer materials are described and future research requirements are detailed.
