Abstract The roughness of the joint surface plays a significant role in evaluating the shear strength of rock. The waviness (first-order) and unevenness (second-order) of natural joints have different effects on the characterization of joint surface roughness. To accurately quantify the influence of the two-order asperity on the joint roughness coefficient (JRC) prediction of joint surface profile curve, the optimal sampling interval of the asperity was determined through the change of the R p {R}_{{rm{p}}} value of the joint surface profile curve. The separation of the two-order asperity of 48 joint surface profile curves was completed at the optimal sampling interval, and morphological parameters of the asperity such as i ave {i}_{{rm{ave}}} , R max {R}_{{rm{max }}} , and R p {R}_{{rm{p}}} were counted from three aspects: asperity angle of the profile curve, asperity degree, and the trace length. Based on the statistical results of the morphological parameters considering the two-order asperity, the new nonlinear prediction models were proposed. The results showed that the curve slope mutation point SI = 2 mm is the optimal separation distance of the two-order asperity of the joint surface profile curve. The refined separation method that considers the waviness and unevenness of morphological parameters can characterize the detailed morphological features of the joint surface in more dimensions. The support vector regression (SVR) and random forest (RF) models that take into account a two-order asperity separated results have higher accuracy than traditional models. The prediction accuracy has improved by 7–8% in SVR model compared with SVR(SO) and RF(SO). The SVR nonlinear model that considering separation of two-orders of joint surface roughness is more suitable for the prediction of JRC.
节理面粗糙度是评价岩石抗剪强度的重要指标。天然节理的波状度(一阶)和凹凸度(二阶)对节理表面粗糙度的表征有不同的影响。为了准确量化二阶粗糙度对结合面轮廓曲线的结合粗糙度系数(JRC)预测的影响，通过改变结合面轮廓曲线的R p {R}_{{rm{p}}}值来确定最优的粗糙度采样间隔。以最优采样间隔完成48条节理面轮廓曲线的二阶粗糙度的分离，并从轮廓曲线的粗糙角、粗糙度和轨迹长度三个方面对粗糙度的形态学参数i ave {i}_{{rm{ave}}}、R max {R}_{{rm{max}}、R p {R}_{{rm{p}}}进行计数。基于形态学参数的统计结果，考虑了二阶粗糙性，提出了新的非线性预测模型。结果表明:曲线斜率突变点SI = 2 mm为节理面轮廓曲线二阶凹凸度的最佳分离距离;考虑形态参数的波浪性和不均匀性的精细化分离方法可以在更多维度上表征节理表面的详细形态特征。考虑了二阶粗糙度分离结果的支持向量回归(SVR)和随机森林(RF)模型比传统模型具有更高的精度。与SVR(SO)和RF(SO)模型相比，SVR模型的预测精度提高了7-8%。考虑两阶节理表面粗糙度分离的SVR非线性模型更适合于JRC的预测。

Abstract Functional foods, drug delivery systems, and cosmetics are the main areas of application for multiphase systems, where the use of naturally derived compounds is preferred. Hence, this study aimed to assess the possibility of using natural surfactants and saponin-rich extracts to produce emulsions containing antibacterial and antioxidant cinnamon and clove essential oils (EOs). The analyses of nanoparticles using dynamic light scattering showed that the addition of plant extracts to solutions allows one to obtain stable emulsions and decreased zeta potential (< −40 mV) and droplet size (<200 nm). In all investigated emulsions, the increase of antioxidative properties was observed when both EOs and plant extracts were used. The emulsion with clove oil stabilized with Quillaja saponaria bark saponins has the highest combined antioxidative properties (3.55 ± 0.01 μg gallic acid equivalent per g). Additionally, a stronger antibacterial action against Pseudomonas bacteria was observed for clove oil with Quillaja saponaria and cinnamon oil with Glycyrrhiza glabra. In addition, plant extracts did not affect significantly the other properties of the oil emulsions, e.g. wettability, colour, and refractive index. All results show that the proposed emulsions can be helpful in the preparation of multifunctional emulsions, where the co-action of saponins and EOs is especially beneficial.

Abstract More than 2 billion people around the world still use raw earth architecture, in countries like Nepal, India, and Iran. In China, the proportion of people living in earthen structures rose to 36%, some of them in western Sichuan. Minority dwellings in western Sichuan, China, use local stone and yellow mud as building materials and have been used for thousands of years. Because yellow mud is a brittle material with poor mechanical properties, and because the region is prone to earthquakes, the walls are highly susceptible to damage under seismic action. To improve the mechanical properties of yellow mud, the yellow mud of Taoping Qiang Village in western Sichuan was studied and modified. Uniaxial compressive tests were conducted on the modified specimens, and the existing ontogenetic equations of raw soil-based materials were analyzed and optimized. Finally, we developed the constitutive models for yellow clay and modified yellow clay in the western Sichuan area, which can be used for different kinds of modified materials through the variation of parameters. The results show that the compressive strength of yellow clay is improved by adding the modified materials. The optimized constitutive model can better fit the test curves, which can provide a basis for theoretical calculations and seismic mitigation of minority residential structures in western Sichuan or similar structural systems.

Abstract Thermal modification is an environment-friendly technology for improving various wood properties, especially the dimensional stability, decay resistance, and color homogeneity. In this work, four tropical wood species (African padauk, merbau, mahogany, and iroko) were thermally modified by the ThermoWood process. The influence of heat treatment on the color and chemical changes of wood was studied by spectrophotometry, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and wet chemistry methods. As the temperature increased, a decrease in lightness (L*) and a simultaneous decrease in chromatic values (a*, b*) were observed, indicating darkening and browning of the wood surface. As a result of the heat treatment, the relative content of hemicelluloses decreased the most in merbau and mahogany, while the thermal stability of iroko and African padauk was higher. All examined wood species showed a strong correlation between the lightness difference value (ΔL*) and the content of hemicelluloses (r = 0.88–0.96). The FTIR spectroscopy showed that the breakdown of C═O and C═C bonds in hemicelluloses and lignin plays an important role in the formation of chromophoric structures responsible for the color changes in the wood.

Abstract Recycled steel fiber comes from the waste produced by machining. Adding recycled steel fiber into concrete can significantly enhance the toughness of concrete. In order to study the impact toughness of recycled steel fiber-reinforced concrete, the drop weight repeated impact experiment method was used to study the performance of recycled steel fiber-reinforced concrete under repeated impact load. Four kinds of recycled steel fiber-reinforced concrete samples with different volume contents were designed and made, and the loading impact experiments under five working conditions were carried out. Taking the drop weight and drop height as changing parameters, the corresponding blow counts of the first crack and sample failure under the impact of the drop hammer are recorded, and the ductility coefficients of different samples are calculated. The results show that the impact resistance of the sample decreases significantly with the increase of the drop weight and drop height. With the increase of recycled steel fiber content, the impact toughness of the sample increases obviously. The impact toughness of recycled steel fiber-reinforced concrete under standard loading conditions is the best.

Abstract Rock masses in underground engineering are usually damaged, which are caused by rock genesis and environmental stress. Studying the constitutive relationship between rock strength and deformation under loading is crucial for the design and evaluation of such scenarios. The new damage constitutive model considering the dynamic change of joint damage was developed to describe the behavior of rocks under loading in this work. First, considering the influence of jointed rock mass structural features in their entirety, the Drucker–Prager criterion and the Hoek–Brown criterion were combined. Second, based on the idea of macro–micro coupling, the calculation formulae of damage variables were derived. Finally, the damage constitutive model of the jointed rock mass was established, and the proposed model was fitted and compared with the test data. Results show that the variation rules for damage value and peak strength are opposite, and the stress–strain is highly sensitive to changes in the parameter s of the model. Moreover, the proposed model can accurately describe the effect of joint deterioration on the entire process of rock mass compression failure, which shows that the damage constitutive models are useful for evaluating the strength characteristics of jointed rock mass in engineering practice.

Abstract In recent years, manufactured sand produced from crushed rock has been used as fine aggregate instead of natural sand in construction and industrial fields to minimize the impact of natural sand depletion in nature and society. In this research, the mechanical properties and durability of alkali-activated sustainable mortar using manufactured sand and different sodium silicate (solution) to precursor ratios (SSPR; 0.60, 0.65, 0.70, 0.75, and 0.80) by weight were investigated. Metakaolin and fly ash were used as precursor, sodium silicate (solution) and sodium hydroxide were used as alkali-activator, and manufactured sand made from broken limestone was used to completely replace river sand as fine aggregate to prepare metakaolin/fly ash (MK/FA) alkali-activated sustainable mortar to ensure sustainable development. The compressive, tensile, and flexural strengths, anti-permeability, and crack resistance of MK/FA alkali-activated sustainable mortar were tested. The impact of different SSPRs on the mechanical properties and durability of alkali-activated sustainable mortar was analyzed. Quadratic function fitting models of tensile strength to compressive strength and flexural strength to compressive strength were proposed. Furthermore, the statistical effects of each parameter were explored using analysis of variance and F-test of statistical analysis. The experimental results indicate that the SSPR has a remarkable effect on the mechanical properties and durability of MK/FA alkali-activated sustainable mortar. When the SSPR is in the range of 0.6–0.8, the compressive, tensile, and flexural strength of the alkali-activated sustainable mortar initially increased and then decreased; however, there is an opposite trend in water penetration depth and crack index. MK/FA alkali-activated sustainable mortar exhibits best compressive strength, tensile strength, flexural strength, anti-permeability, and cracking resistance of 40.2 MPa, 3.38 MPa, 4.3 MPa, 41.3 mm, and 245 mm, respectively, at SSPR of 0.7. The experimental findings of this study can provide theoretical guidance for practical engineering of alkali-activated sustainable mortars using manufactured sand.

Abstract The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of an office bleaching agent on the color of various single-shade resin composites. Three single-shade resin composites were tested in this study. Thirty disk-shaped specimens were prepared with a diameter of 10 mm and a height of 1 mm, and they were divided into three groups (n = 10). After color measurements, 40% hydrogen peroxide containing bleaching agent gel was applied to all the specimens. Baseline and final color measurements were performed using a clinical spectrophotometer. Statistical analyses were performed. All bleached specimens had clinically incomprehensible color changes (ΔE < 3.3). Comparisons for single-shade composites revealed no statistically significant color difference between groups. With the limitation of this study in mind, color changes in single-shade resin-composites after office bleaching were found to be clinically acceptable. It may be appropriate to use single-shade composites that shorten the in-chair clinical time by facilitating shade selection.

Abstract The pore-structure characteristics of hybrid basalt–polypropylene fibre-reinforced concrete were investigated by using mercury intrusion porosimetry. The applicability of various fractal models in characterising the HBPRC pore structure was compared. The results show that the types and content of fibres show different influences on the cumulative pore volume and fractal characteristics of hybrid basalt-polypropylene fibre-reinforced concrete. Compared with pore-volume and solid mass, the fractal characteristics of pore surface area of hybrid basalt-polypropylene fibre-reinforced concrete is more significant. Furthermore, the pore-surface fractal model that established based on the energy conservation relationship during mercury intrusion is more accurate and effective for the characterization of fractal dimension of hybrid basalt-polypropylene fibre-reinforced concrete. The research results can provide important theoretical guidance for the study of pore structure and fractal characteristics of fibre-reinforced concrete.

The research results can provide important theoretical guidance for the study of pore structure and fractal characteristics of fibre-reinforced concrete.","PeriodicalId":54484,"journal":{"name":"Reviews on Advanced Materials Science","volume":"177 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80677290","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Abstract Basalt fiber (BF) is a kind of high-performance fiber rising rapidly in recent years. BF is typically used in the field of structure engineering because of its high strength and high modulus. The preparation of BF-based composites first requires surface modification of BF to improve the interfacial bonding between BF and the resin matrix. With the continuous deepening of the research on BF surface modification, researchers have found that special surface modification can obtain BF-based functionalized composites, and this field has received extensive attention in recent years. In this article, research work on BF-based functional composites in recent years are summarized and reviewed from the aspects of electromagnetic shielding, water treatment, catalytic function and fire insulation. Finally, this article summarizes the BF surface modification methods, and proposes the development trends and direction of BF-based functional composites.
