Void Lensing in Cubic Galileon Gravity

Cheng Zhao, Huanyuan Shan, Jiaxi Yu, Qiao Wang

Weak-lensing studies via cosmic voids are a promising probe of modified gravity (MG). The excess surface mass density (ESD) is widely used as a lensing statistic in weak-lensing research. In this paper, we use the ray-tracing method to study the ESD around ...

Structure analysis of beta dicalcium silicate via scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM)

Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva, Qiao Wang

Beta-dicalcium silicate (beta-C2S), one of the main phases in Portland cement clinker, offers some promising overviews regarding CO2 and energy savings potential compared to alite. Understanding the crystalline structure and reactive sites on beta-C2S surf ...

Resistance of cementitious materials to sulfate attack: quantifying performance with a reliable unidirectional approach

Qiao Wang

Depending on the environmental conditions, concrete materials can come into contact with sulfate ions which are widely present in rivers, underground water, sewers, seawater and soil. Sulfates can react with the cement paste in concrete and cause damage wh ...

Effect of Magnesium and Zinc Ions on the Hydration Kinetics of C3S

Karen Scrivener, Marco Cantoni, Qiao Wang, Amélie Bazzoni

Impure tricalcium silicate (C3S) in portland cement may contain various foreign ions. These ions can stabilize different polymorphs of C3S at room temperature and may affect its reactivity. In this paper, the effects of magnesium and zinc on the polymorph ...

Electric field-induced deterioration of cement mortars owing to calcium leaching

Qiao Wang

This paper investigated the calcium leaching from plain and fly ash/limestone blended cement mortars under an electric field. The Ca2+ leaching degree and reduced CaO content were measured to assess the extent of calcium leaching, and the compressive stren ...

Unidirectional penetration approach for characterizing sulfate attack mechanisms on cement mortars and pastes

Karen Scrivener, William Wilson, Qiao Wang

Degradation of cementitious materials by sulfate ions is commonly classified into chemical and physical sulfate attack. So-called "physical" attack dominates in many field situations, but laboratory testing focuses on "chemical" attack under full-immersion ...

Cosmological constraints from weak lensing peak statistics with Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Stripe 82 Survey

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Huanyuan Shan, Qiao Wang

We derived constraints on cosmological parameters using weak lensing peak statistics measured on the similar to aEuro parts per thousand 130 deg(2) of the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Stripe 82 Survey. This analysis demonstrates the feasibility of using ...

Contradict mechanism of long-term magnesium and sodium sulfate attacks of nano silica-modified cement mortars - Experimental and thermodynamic modeling

Qiao Wang

The mechanisms of external sulfate attack on cement mortars containing nano silica have been studied under full immersion conditions after 3 years. The sulfate degradation processes were compared between sodium sulfate and magnesium sulfate solutions with ...

A Novel Uniaxial Penetration Approach to Investigate Sulfate Attack on Cement-Based Materials

Karen Scrivener, Qiao Wang

The sodium sulfate crystallization attack in cementitious materials is addressed in this paper. Portland cement, sulfate-resisting cement, and calcined clay limestone cement were compared by the evolution of expansion, sulfate ingress property, and suscept ...
