• A Novel Artificial Neural Network to Predict Compressive Strength of Recycled Aggregate Concrete 

  Suescum-Morales, David; Salas-Morera, Lorenzo; Jiménez, José Ramón; García-Hernández, Laura (MDPI, 2021)

  Most regulations only allow the use of the coarse fraction of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) for the manufacture of new concrete, although the heterogeneity of RCA makes it difficult to predict the compressive strength ...

• Compatibility studies between an indirect injection diesel injector and biodiesel with different composition: Stationary tests 

  Alcántara Carmona, Antonio; López Giménez, Francisco Jesús; Dorado, M.P. (Elsevier, 2022)

  Compatibility between automotive materials and biodiesel is key for engine manufacturers, since failures occur in the medium term and may significantly reduce engine useful life. There are only few studies about compatibility ...

• Optimisation of mortar with Mg-Al-Hydrotalcite as sustainable management strategy lead waste 

  Lozano Lunar, Angélica; Álvarez, José Ignacio; Navarro-Blasco, Íñigo; Jiménez, José Ramón; Fernández Rodríguez, José María (MDPI, 2021)

  This study analyses how a Mg-Al-Hydrotalcite with carbonate in the interlayer influences the hydration of mortar allowing the management of lead waste (solid or liquid) in a cement-based material. First, the compatibility ...

• Geopolymer concrete with treated recycled aggregates: Macro and microstructural behavior 

  Pawluczuk, Edyta; Kalinowska-Wichrowska, Katarzyna; Jiménez, José Ramón; Fernández Rodríguez, José María; Suescum-Morales, David (Elsevier, 2021)

  Geopolymer concrete is a more environmentally friendly alternative than conventional concrete because its production does not need cement. Instead, waste materials such as fly ash, rice husk ash, slag, etc. are used. This ...

• Mechanical Performance of Concrete Made with the Addition of Recycled Macro Plastic Fibres 

  Vaccaro, Pietro Antonio; Pérez Galvín, Adela; Ayuso Muñoz, Jesús; Barbudo Muñoz, M. Auxiliadora; López Uceda, Antonio (MDPI, 2021)

  For many decades, researchers have been working on finding innovative and sustainable solutions to address the enormous quantities of plastic waste that are produced every year which, after being collected, are transformed ...
