Improved Predictions of Permeability Properties in Cement-Based Materials: A Comparative Study of Pore Size Distribution-Based Models
CONSTRUCTION AND BUILDING MATERIALS（2024）
Shanghai Jiao Tong Univ
Abstract
Permeability is a fundamental physical property of a cement-based material and is closely related to its pore structure. This study developed an improved model for permeability prediction of cementitious materials with a function of the pore size distribution (PSD), in which PSD is simulated from single and compound lognormal distribution functions, respectively. The efficiency of the improved model is demonstrated by calculating permeability for mortars and pastes available in the literature. It is found that, first, for cementitious materials with unimodal PSD, the single lognormal distribution function is adequate to describe the pore structures. In contrast, for cementing mixtures presenting multimodal PSD, the compounded lognormal distribution function is highly recommended to cover a wide range of pore components. Second, the permeability model based on the compound PSD can predict well permeability to gas intrusion, whereas the single PSD-based model is applicable for calculating permeability via water intrusion. Furthermore, slippage effect and water saturation degree are introduced in the PSD-based model. Results prove that the corrected gas permeability model from the compound PSD performs well in estimating the gas permeability in unsaturated states. Finally, the compound PSD-based model is extended by considering varying porosities and relative humidities, which can be used to quantitively describe permeability when cementitious materials undergoing pore structure degradation induced by durability issues.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
