Slag is increasingly unitized for the production of sustainable concrete. This paper presents a procedure with which to analyze property development slag composite Experimental studies hydration heat and compressive strength simulation using kinetic model thermodynamic were performed. First, we performed an experimental study isothermal cement–slag blends. Based on results cumulative heat, reac...

Most results in multifractal analysis are obtained using either a thermodynamic approach based on existence and uniqueness of equilibrium states or a saturation approach based on some version of the specification property. A general framework incorporating the most important multifractal spectra was introduced by Barreira and Saussol, who used the thermodynamic approach to establish the multifr...

This paper discusses the thermodynamic irreversibility realized in high-dimensional Hamiltonian systems with a time-dependent parameter. A new quantity, the irreversible information loss, is defined from the Lyapunov analysis so as to characterize the thermodynamic irreversibility. It is proved that this new quantity satisfies an inequality associated with the second law of thermodynamics. Base...

Recent advances in modeling thermodynamic and transport properties of electrolyte solutions are reviewed. In particular, attention is focused on mixed-solvent electrolyte models, equations of state for high-temperature and supercritical electrolyte systems and transport property models for multicomponent, concentrated solutions. The models are analyzed with respect to their capability of comput...

A methodology for multi-level conceptual design and analysis of crystallization-based separation processes involving electrolyte systems is presented. The methodology consists of three main parts: thermodynamic part (level 1), flowsheet design/analysis part (level 2) and flowsheet validation (simulation) part (level 3). In this paper, the integration of the thermodynamic and design/analysis par...

The action of four-dimensional Horndeski gravity coupled to Born-Infeld electromagnetic fields is given via the Kaluza-Klein process. Dyonic black hole solution theory constructed. metric devoid singularity at origin independent parameter selections, this property different from one Einstein-Born-Infeld holes. Thermodynamics studied, thermodynamic quantities are calculated and first law checked...

We have studied a model which has been proposed as a regularisation for four dimensional quantum gravity. The partition function is constructed by performing a weighted sum over all triangulations of the four sphere. Using numerical simulation we nd that the number of such triangulations containing V simplices grows faster than exponentially with V. This property ensures that the model has no t...
