Vibration procedures significantly affect the performances of cement-based materials. However, studies on the distribution of certain particles within cement-based materials are limited due to the complexity and difficulty of identifying each specific particle. This paper presents a new method for simulating and quantifying the movements of particles within cement paste through the use of "tagged materials". By separating the tagged particles from the cement paste after vibration, the distribution of the particles in the cement paste can be calculated statistically. The effect of the vibration time and frequency, fresh behavior, and powder characteristics of cement paste on particle motions are investigated. The results demonstrate that when the vibration exceeds 1800 s, it induces a significant uneven dispersion of microparticles. This effect is more pronounced at low viscosities (<1 Pa·s) of cement paste or high vibration frequencies (>200 Hz). Larger and denser particles exhibit greater dispersion. This method provides a valuable tool for investigating the theory of particle motion in cement paste, which is crucial for understanding the influence of vibration on the properties of cement-based materials.

Carbonation under Varying Humidity Conditions: A 3D Micro-Scale Kinetic Monte Carlo Approach.
Langmuir

Institute of Concrete Structures and Building Materials, Gotthard-Franz-Str. 3, Karlsruhe 76131, Germany.
This paper investigates the impact of varying humidity conditions on the carbonation depth in hardened cement paste using a 3-dimensional microscale kinetic Monte Carlo (kMC) approach. The kMC algorithm effectively simulates the carbonation process by capturing the interplay between CO diffusion and relative humidity at the microscale, providing insights into macro trends that align with historical models. The study reveals that the maximum carbonation depth is achieved at relative humidity levels between 55 and 65%, where the balance between water and CO diffusion is optimized.

Comparative Study on the Calcium Leaching Resistance of Low-Heat Cement, Moderate-Heat Cement, and Ordinary Portland Cement Pastes.
Materials (Basel)

College of Hydraulic and Civil Engineering, Xinjiang Agricultural University, Urumqi 830052, China.
Hydraulic structures are frequently subjected to soft-water or acidic environments, necessitating serious consideration of the long-term effects of calcium leaching on the durability of concrete structures. Three types of common Portland cement (ordinary Portland cement, moderate-heat cement, and low-heat cement) paste samples widely applied to hydraulic concrete were immersed in a 6 mol/L NHCl solution to simulate accelerated calcium leaching behavior. The mass loss, porosity, leaching depth, compressive strength, and Ca/Si ratio of the three types of pastes were measured at different immersion stages (0, 14, 28, 56, 91, 140, and 180 days).
