“…To verify the validity of this approach on concrete and more precisely on self-compacting concrete, we compared the experimental values of plastic viscosity obtained by a concrete rheometer with those calculated theoretically by our Equation (1).Example of used Runge-Kutta method (Matlab program):…”

“…It can therefore be used for works that are delicate to flow, such as those which use reinforcement of an unusual density or those which involve the liquid concrete being diffused in narrow conduits. SCC can also be poured into very fine and complex casts, ultimately producing a remarkably delicate textured surface 1 …”

“…SCC can also be poured into very fine and complex casts, ultimately producing a remarkably delicate textured surface. 1 SCC is a complex composite material to which different rheological approaches can be applied. The behavior of a fresh mixture can be considered as that of a solid phase in granular form with a very wide range of interacting particle sizes.…”

Widely used by architects and builders for its many qualities: strength, durability and also for its great adaptability to shapes, the self-compacting concrete (SCC) remains a material of great future both for major infrastructure works and for quality architectural achievements. Currently, to measure the rheological properties of the fresh concrete (plastic viscosity μ p and yield stress τ 0 ), the widely adopted test is the "concrete rheometer." However, the use of a rheometer on site is a very complex operation, because it is too expensive, and in addition, it requires a qualified person to move, handle or repair it. Hence, many laboratories use other empirical tests to predict the rheological behavior of concrete. Each of these tests characterizes only one of the two rheological

“…Wu et al studied calcium lignosulfonate-modified expansive soil's macroscopic mechanical properties and microstructure characteristics. The results show that the addition of calcium lignosulfonate can increase the condensation ability of soil, reduce the existence of pores, and increase the unconfined compressive strength [14]. Chavali et al studied the treatment of expansive soil with lignosulfonate.…”

To study the feasibility and effect of compounding lignin and its derivatives to improve expansive soil, the physical properties, mechanical properties, and microstructure of the improved soil mixed with calcium lignosulfonate alone, calcium lignosulfonate and lignin fibers were investigated through indoor experiments and electron microscope scanning. Select samples with better performance for water stability tests, and discuss the improvement mechanism of expansive soil by combining macroscopic mechanical changes with microstructural characteristics. The research results show that the addition of calcium lignosulfonate can reduce the water content of the soil and enhance its strength of the soil. The overall performance is the best when the calcium lignosulfonate content is 3%. 3% calcium lignosulfonate compounded with 1.5% lignin fiber has the best all-around performance; the composite improved soil has a better pore-filling effect, the whole is more compact, and the connection between particles significantly enhances the strength, which greatly inhibits the development of cracks good water stability. Lignin and its derivatives compound improved expansive soil have better effect than traditional improvement methods, and have no pollution to the environment, which can provide a particular reference for engineering practice.
