TL;DR: In this paper, the properties of new Interfacial Transition Zone (ITZ) and old ITZ in Recycled Aggregate Concrete (RAC) were investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and nanoindentation.
Abstract: The properties of new Interfacial Transition Zone (ITZ) and old ITZ in Recycled Aggregate Concrete (RAC) were investigated by Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and nanoindentation. From the SEM images, obvious voids and high concentration of calcium hydroxide can be found in both old ITZ and new ITZ in RAC. Based on the nanoindentation study, it is indicated that the thicknesses of old and new ITZs are in the range 40–50 μm and in the range 55–65 μm, respectively. It is also found that the average indentation modulus of old ITZ is 70–80% of that of old paste matrix, while the average indentation modulus of new ITZ is 80–90% of that of new paste matrix. Additionally, the influences of mix proportion, aggregate types and hydration age on the properties of ITZs in RAC are discussed in this study.

TL;DR: In this paper, three recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) replacement percentages (i.e., 0, 50% and 100%) and two types of steel rebars (plain and deformed) were considered in order to investigate the bond behavior between recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) and rebars.

TL;DR: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one, which seems an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.
Abstract: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one. I remember first hearing about it at school. It seemed an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.
Usually familiarity dulls this sense of the bizarre, but in the case of i it was the reverse: over the years the sense of its surreal nature intensified. It seemed that it was impossible to write mathematics that described the real world in …
