Purpose Hempcrete has the potential to reduce both CO 2 emissions and energy usage in buildings. a high sound absorption capacity, excellent moisture regulator outstanding thermal insulation properties. However, hempcrete traditionally uses lime-based binders, which are carbon-intensive materials. The low-carbon binders increase sustainability of current research gap. Geopolymer composed aluminosilicate precursors dissolved alkalinity solution. This study investigated suitability calcined...
Abstract This work investigates interfacial electro-mechanical properties, including electrical contact resistance, capacitance and characteristic frequency of contacts formed with various surface structures. Fractal rough surfaces were generated characterised by fractal dimension root-mean-square (RMS) roughness. The a thin oxide layer was compressed the rigid flat to form capacitor. Electrical impedances this capacitor simulated using finite element method across wide range frequencies. A...
Overburden strata fracture evolution is critical to dynamic disaster prevention and gas-relief drainage, so it important accurately determine the relationships with mining disturbance. In this paper, experiments numerical simulation were adopted jointly characterize time-varying area of overlying strata. The experimental results showed that roof gradually broke collapsed coal mining, which indicated fractures overburden developed in an upward direction. development causes explained by...
Interfacial polarization dominates the permittivity spectra of heterogeneous granular materials for intermediate frequency range (i.e., from kHz to MHz). In this study, we examine corresponding dielectric responses compacted glass sphere packings saturated with pore-filling fluids under various compressive stresses. The effective are observed exhibit consistently a plateau-to-plateau drop, described by low-frequency permittivity, characteristic frequency, and high-frequency permittivity....
To compare the operating parameters of 110 kV smooth aluminum sheathed cables and corrugated cables, thermal resistance, loss coefficient current carrying capacity two are calculated by means an equivalent path analysis. The results show that resistance losses cable less than those cable, which in a load 776.88 A for increase 10.8% compared to cable. It is indication has better economic application prospects
