Quality Characteristics of Sustainable High-Performance Concrete Formulated from Binary, Ternary, and Quaternary Supplementary Cementitious Materials Under Various Curing Conditions.

The formulation of binary, ternary, and quaternary supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) on an optimized silica fume amount using fly ash, ultrafine (MQ), and limestone powders (LS) is the most sustainable approach to recycling these types of solid wastes for durable concrete. The optimum replacement level of 10% silica fume was blended with different replacement levels of 5, 8, 10, and 15% MQ to formulate different ternary mixes to evaluate the filling effect of MQ. Different ternary mixes containing 10% silica fume and 5, 10, and 15% LS were also produced to examine the effectiveness of both ternary mixtures with either MQ or LS.

Serious game for radiotherapy training.

Background: Cancer patients are often treated with radiation, therefore increasing their exposure to high energy emissions. In such cases, medical errors may be threatening or fatal, inducing the need to innovate new methods for maximum reduction of irreversible events. Training is an efficient and methodical tool to subject professionals to the real world and heavily educate them on how to perform with minimal errors.

Eco-Innovative UHPC-Enhancing Sustainability, Workability, and Ductility with Recycled Glass Cullet Powder and Plastic Bottle Hybrid Fibers.

Utilizing waste materials in producing ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) represents a highly effective approach to creating environmentally sustainable concrete using renewable resources. This study focused on incorporating ground glass cullet (GP) at various replacement levels in UHPC production. Additionally, plastic bottle fibers (PBFs) were derived from discarded plastic bottles and employed in the mix.
