Porosity of recycled concrete with substitution of recycled concrete aggregate: An experimental study

In this paper, we present the experimental analysis of samples of recycled concrete (RC) with replacement of natural aggregate (NA) by recycled aggregate originating from concrete (RCA). The results of the tests of mechanical properties of RC were used for comparison with tests of mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP), in which the distribution of the theoretical pore radius, critical pore ratio, the surface area of the concrete, threshold ratio and average pore radius were studied at ages of 7, 28 and 90 days. The results showed some variation in the properties of the RC with respect to ordinary concrete. Porosity increases considerably when NA is replaced by RCA. Additionally, a reduction in the mechanical properties of the RC is seen compared with ordinary concrete when porosity increases.

The smooth fractionator

A modification of the general fractionator sampling technique called the smooth fractionator is presented. It may be used in almost every situation in which sampling is performed from distinct items that are uniquely defined, often they are physically separated items or clusters like pieces, blocks, slabs, sections, etc. To each item is associated a ‘guesstimate’ or an associated variable with a more‐or‐less close – and possibly biased ? relationship to the content of the item. The smooth fractionator is systematic sampling among the items arranged according to the guesstimates in a unique, symmetric sequence with one peak and minimal jumps. The smooth fractionator is both very simple to implement and so efficient that it should probably always be used unless the natural sequence of the sampling items is equally smooth. So far, there is no theory for the prediction of the efficiency of smooth fractionator designs in general, and their properties are therefore illustrated with a range of real and simulated examples. At the cost of a slightly more elaborate sampling scheme, it is, however, always possible to obtain an unbiased estimate of the real precision and of some of the variance components. The only real practical problem for always obtaining a high precision with the smooth fractionator is specimen inhomogeneity, but that is detectable at almost no extra cost. With careful designs and for sample sizes of about 10, the sampling variation for the primary, smooth fractionator sampling step may in practice often be small enough to be ignored.

Characterizing Performance Variation of Product Designs

Quality and reliability design practitioners have utilized Taguchi's methodology of matrix experimentation to generate computer simulation data for characterizing performance variation of product designs. However, the sampling strategy employed renders computer implementation of matrix experimentation cumbersome and statistically invalid. Weaknesses of this approach also include sample size limitation and overestimation of performance variation. An alternative approach that combines Monte Carlo simulation with the strategies of independent sampling across runs and correlated sampling between runs is presented. An application case study shows that the proposed approach constitutes an improvement on the matrix approach with respect to statistical validity and estimation accuracy.     

Water quality surveys: A statistical method based on determinism, quantiles and the binomial distribution

A statistical method for surveying water quality and analysing the results in terms of quantiles is described. The value of a water quality variable in a grab-sample is taken as a deterministic function of the temporal and spatial coordinates of the sampling point. Quantiles can then be defined for any specified region in time and space as unique, fixed values, and randomly located grab-samples may be used to estimate them for the purposes of describing or regulating water quality. Robust statistical inferences are possible using the binomial distribution. Properties of the quantiles, confidence limits, comparisons with fixed values or between regions, assessment of trends, simultaneous inferences and estimation of sample sizes are discussed. Two examples of water quality surveys, one of Port Phillip Bay, the other of the Maribyrnong River, Victoria, are used to illustrate the theory, paying particular attention to practical problems which arose. The proposed method is compared with others based on stochastic models, and is claimed to be simpler and more reliable.

A general variance predictor for Cavalieri slices

A general variance predictor is presented for a Cavalieri design with slices of an arbitrary thickness t ≥ 0. So far, prediction formulae have been available either for measurement functions with smoothness constant q = 0, 1, … , and t ≥ 0, or for fractional q ∈ [0, 1] with t = 0. Because the possibility of using a fractional q adds flexibility to the variance prediction, we have extended the latter for any q ∈ [0, 1] and t ≥ 0. Empirical checks with previously published human brain data suggest an improved performance of the new prediction formula with respect to the hitherto available ones.
