Micromechanical testing and modelling of blast furnace slag cement pastes
Dear all,
Our group at Delft University of Technology has recently published an article on micromechanical testing and modelling of blast furnace slag cement pastes. We present the use of innovative micromechanical models and experimental techniques on the case of a quasi-brittle, cement paste material. Interested readers can read the full text at: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/338420566_Micromechanical_test…
