  • This research was performed to evaluate the longitudinal length change ratio of concrete used the expansive admixture. As the results of this study, the compressive strength was shown the highest value at the used 10% expansive admixture both of the dry and wet curing condition. And the length change ration was shown higher 0.0316% and 0.0529 % than that of control in wet and dry curing condition. But this value was not enough to recover the shrinkage occuring by dry shrinkage. According to this study , we have obtained 10% on normal portland cement concrete as the optimum replacement ration of expansive admixture.

  • The purpose of this study is to examine the effect on drying shrinkage of self-healing epoxy-modified mortars(EPMMs) using expansive admixtures. The EPMMs are prepared with polymer-binder ratios of 0 and 10%, and tested for drying shrinkage and pore structure analysis. As a result, regardless of the expansion and swelling agent content, the drying shrinkage of the EPMMs is remarkably decreased than that of unmodified mortars. Also, the pore size distribution of the EPMMs is moved to smaller size in comparison with unmodified mortars. In this study, the EPMM with expansive agent 7.5% and swelling agent 2.5% is recommended as a optimal mix proportion for reduction of drying shrinkage.

  • Extensive study was carried out on Clay expansive soil. This soil was silty clay and can be classified as CH. The degree of expansion was found to range from low to medium depending on the free swell and swell pressure tests. The research investigated the effect of using cement dust on swelling potential, Atterberg Limit, linear shrinkage, and mineralogical composition of expansive soil. The results showed that the swelling potential, plasticity index, linear shrinkage, and clay minerals decrease with increasing cement dust percentage. The cement dust accumulates in huge amounts as a side product in cement factories, and the disposal of this fine dust is very difficult and poses an environmental threat.

  • Let X be a compact space and Λ a finite index set. We deal with dynamical properties of iterated function systems on X. For an iterated function system 𝓕 on X, we prove that 𝓕 is c-expansive if and only if 𝓕k is also c-expansive for each k ∈ ℕ. Furthermore we prove that the c-expansiveness of 𝓕 is equivalent to the original expansiveness of the shift map of it.

  • Up to now, many researches have been performed md verified that many properties of concrete can be improved by using mineral admixtures such as blast furnace slag, silica fume, and expansive admixture. But it is not clear whether there is any need for entraining air to make a high strength concrete using expansive admixture and mineral admixtures to insure enough freeze-thaw resistance. this paper presents the strength and durability properties of high strength concrete using expasive admixtures and industrial by-products. It was observed from the test results that very high strength concrete$(W/B=20\%)$ is not needed to be air entrained and high strength concrete$(W/B=30\%)$ using expansive admixture and mineral admixtures is needed to be entrained $2\~4\%$ air.

  • Let X = {a} ${\cup}$ {$a_{i}$ ${$\mid$}$i $\in$ N} be a subspace of Euclidean space $E^2$ such that $lim_{{i}{\longrightarrow}{$\infty}}a_{i}$ = a and $a_{i}\;{\neq}\;a_{j}$ for $i{\neq}j$. Then it is well known that the space X has no expansive homeomorphisms with the shadowing property. In this paper we show that the set of all expansive homeomorphisms with the shadowing property on the space Y is dense in the space H(Y) of all homeomorphisms on Y, where Y = {a, b} ${\cup}$ {$a_{i}{$\mid$}i{\in}Z$} is a subspace of $E^2$ such that $lim_{i}$-$\infty$ $a_{i}$ = b and $lim_{{i}{\longrightarrow}{$\infty}}a_{i}$ = a with the following properties; $a_{i}{\neq}a_{j}$ for $i{\neq}j$ and $a{\neq}b$.

  • In this dissertation, the shrinkage and durability of shotcrete were examined. Analysis and comparison of shrinkage against the strength of shotcrete was investigated after performing actual shotcrete shooting for each mix of different percentage of expansive agent. The research on restrained shrinkage with different percentages of expansive agent used (3%, 7%, 11% and 15%) shows that the maximum shrinkage in all samples occurred in between 13-15 hrs after shotcrete shooting. And it is noticed that increasing the percentage of expansive agent can lower the shrinkage. And hence, the 15% of expansive agent not only lowered the shrinkage But it also lowered the strength.

  • The cohesive non-swelling soil (CNS) cushion technology has been widely applied in the subgrade and slope improvement at expansive soil regions. However, the mechanism of the inhibition effect of the CNS layer on expansive soil (ES) has not been fully understood. We performed four outdoor model tests to further understand the inhibition effect, including different kinds of upper layer and thickness, under the unidirectional seepage condition. The swelling deformation, soil pressure, and electrical resistivity were constantly monitored during the saturation process. It is found that when a CNS layer covered the ES layer, the swelling deformation and electrical resistivity of the ES layer decreased significantly, especially the upper part. The inhibition effect of the CNS layer increases with the increase of CNS thickness. The distribution of vertical and lateral soil pressure also changed with the covering of a CNS layer. The electrical resistivity can be an effective index to describe the swelling deformation of ES layer and analyze the inhibition effect of the CNS layer. Overall, the CNS deadweight and the ion migration are the major factors that inhibit the swelling deformation of expansive soil.
