报告摘要: 

Most building materials are made from granular ingredients, which are  normally non-spherical. The most produced material, concrete, is an example, and here the size span of the ingredients is typically 5 decades. The technical properties of these building materials depend on the overall grading of its ingredients. In essence this is the classic physical/mathematical problem of particle packing. As the size range is so large, and the particle shape non-spherical, simulations are not possible, and analytical methods are possible only. In this lecture theoretical principles of particle packing are presented, applied to the practical design of building materials.

报告人简介: 

Prof. Dr. Ir. H.J.H. Brouwers is an internationally leading scientist on sustainable building materials.He is currently a Full Professor and Chair of Building Materials at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). Brouwers’ group investigates and develops building materials composed of cement, gypsum, lime and cementitious by-products, such as concrete, functionalised materials and stabilised waste. Fundamental physical and chemical know-how, e.g. on (de-) hydration reactions, physical transport phenomena, thermal behaviour, multiscale analysis, and durability are researched experimentally, theoretically and numerically.  Prof. Brouwers is editor of a number of scientific journals and reviewer of numerous journals and research funding organisations. Prof. Brouwers has published about 400 publications, of which 200 in leading international scientific journals.
