Concrete plays an important role in the construction industry worldwide. New technology has made for easier development of new types of construction and alternative materials in the concrete area. Cement is the major component in the production of concrete, but its manufacture causes environmental issues and thus there is a need for alternative materials. Geopolymer concrete is a new type of material with that potential, commonly formed by alkali activation of industrial alumina silicate byproducts, such as fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS). For this paper, mechanical properties of geopolymer concrete with fly ash and GGBS cured under ambient temperatures were studied. Five different grades of concrete were considered. The results were encouraging: The workability of the geopolymer concrete was similar to that of conventional concrete. Experimental results of flexural and splitting tensile strength revealed insignificant variation compared to conventional concrete. The mechanical properties of fly ash and GGBS-based geopolymer concrete were comparable with conventional concrete.

An ancient BTM with PCM was controlled through the issues of high inflexibility of phase change material, leakage problems and very low conductivity in thermal energy. This research paper reports a facile batter thermal management and creativity along with induced non-rigid phase change material composites. This battery model can be determined by the flexible phase change material composites along with an intervention due to the recovery in shape and non-rigidity of flexible phase change components. This assemble was modeled to be efficient and compact without any requirement for grease. A constant state reveals various stages of phase change material which has various properties in thermal efficiency. A unified state was linked with the recovery shape of flexible phase change components which can cause a low resistance in FCPCM and battery. Battery thermal management demonstrates the perfect process of thermal control power. If the battery was discharged from 90 to 10% of charge, then the temperature of flexible phase change components depends upon battery thermal management. It was 44.5°C during the 3.5°C rate which was 29.8°C lower than no phase change material. It also reveals low-temperature oscillation inside the long-time process and range of heat of recovered phase change material. The performance of battery thermal management and its flexibility will give perceptions of passive battery thermal management systems.
