Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal storage of sensible heat using concrete modules in solar power plants
Valentina Salomoni,Carmelo E. Majorana,Giuseppe Mauro Giannuzzi,Adio Miliozzi,Rosa Di Maggio,F. Girardi,Domenico Mele,Marco Lucentini +7 more
TL;DR: Guards for designing a concrete storage module and for its integration into a solar plant, respecting constraints linked both to an adequate solar field operation and to the production system based on ORC, are described as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of nylon fibres on mechanical and thermal properties of hardened concrete for energy storage systems
O.B. Ozger,F. Girardi,Giuseppe Mauro Giannuzzi,Valentina Salomoni,Carmelo E. Majorana,Luca Fambri,N. Baldassino,R. Di Maggio +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the influence of a fiber content of 5 kg/m3 on the mechanical and thermal properties of fresh and hardened concrete with a w/c ratio of 0.35.
Journal ArticleDOI
An approach for modelling concrete spalling in finite strains
TL;DR: A new approach for modelling concrete spalling process is here proposed, taking into account a fully nonlinear-displacement/strain theory able to catch complex interactions between pressure, thermal and mechanical fields.
Journal ArticleDOI
Composite behavior of concrete materials under high temperatures
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of concrete under elevated temperatures at the meso-scale level of observation where aggregate particles and the embedding hydrated cement paste form interacting continua was examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gamma-ray shielding properties of heavyweight concrete with Electric Arc Furnace slag as aggregate: An experimental and numerical study
B. Pomaro,Fabiana Gramegna,Roberto Cherubini,Viviana De Nadal,Valentina Salomoni,Flora Faleschini +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the radiation shielding properties of two types of heavyweight concretes, one containing barite and one made with Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) slag as coarse aggregates, were investigated both experimentally and numerically.
