After exposure to high temperatures, the mechanical properties and durability of concrete structures are significantly reduced, effective measures must be taken for reinforcement repair. High-temperature damage manifests as looseness, spalling, cracks, which suitable microbial-induced carbonate precipitation. When repairing high-temperature with precipitation (MICP), calcium source is an important influencing factor. The type method used add will directly affect mineralized products, in turn...
In this study, the effects of soybean-urease-induced carbonate precipitation on a high-temperature damage repair concrete were explored. C50 specimens exposed to high temperatures from 300 600 °C, then cooled an ambient temperature and repaired by two different methods. The influences methods surface film thickness, average infrared increase, water absorption, compressive strength investigated. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images carried out further study mechanism involved. results...
Local discharges in the vicinity of mounting flange composite bushings due to electric field enhancement and dry band arcing on surface can cause insulating material degradation leading failure bushing. A proposed solution this problem by employing a resistive silicone rubber coating HV was investigated. Good agreement obtained between computer software simulation FEMLAB/spl reg/ measurement results potential distributions. Wetting salt-fog chamber tests verified that coated have superior...
