Volume Changes of Cement Composite Based on Steel Slag During Thermal Load

The use of natural sources of aggregate for production of cement composites with different physical and mechanical properties is common. From the viewpoint of saving natural sources of aggregate in the production of concretes, there is an effort to find a

Preface

The success of materials in technical applications as well as their safety during operation depends on robust characterization and/or prediction methods which provide reliable material properties. This becomes more and more important because engineering materials are used closer and closer to their limit to increase the performance of any machines and structures. To increase the engineering value of a material, components are designed under the consideration of their multiphysical properties and functions which requires a much more comprehensive investigation and characterization of these materials. The materials covered in this monograph range from metal-based groups such as lightweight alloys and advanced high-strength steels to modern titanium alloys. Furthermore, a wide range of polymers and composite materials (e.g., with micro- and nanoparticles or fibers) is covered. The properties that are covered range
