TLDR
In this article, the effects of graphene and graphene oxide on the hydration, microstructures and mechanical properties of cement paste were investigated by using reactive force field molecular dynamics (MD), revealing that functional hydroxyl groups in GO provide non-bridging oxygen (NBO) sites that accept hydrogen-bonds of interlayer water molecules in the calcium silicate hydrate (CSH).

Enhancement of heat-cured cement paste with tannic acid

TL;DR: In this article , the effect of tannic acid (TA) on the performance of heat-cured cement pastes was investigated, and the authors showed that adding less than 0.025% TA can reduce the compressive and flexural strength of the pastes by up to 3.4% and 17.4%, respectively.

A second-generation reactive empirical bond order (REBO) potential energy expression for hydrocarbons

TL;DR: Brenner as mentioned in this paper presented a second generation potential energy function for solid carbon and hydrocarbon molecules that is based on an empirical bond order formalism, allowing for covalent bond breaking and forming with associated changes in atomic hybridization within a classical potential, producing a powerful method for modelling complex chemistry in large many-atom systems.
