Purposes This work is conducted to achieve the objectives of carbon emission reduction and resource utilization of solid waste. Methods Geopolymer concrete was prepared from red mud and coal-metakaolin, and the effect of four factors on its mechanical properties was investigated with an orthogonal test method. Findings The water-binder ratio was found to have a significant effect on the strength of the geopolymer concrete, followed by Na2O/H2O, while the curing conditions and the aggregate-binder ratio have lesser effect, according to the ANOVA. On the basis of the experimental results, the mathematical model of compressive strength and splitting tensile strength of geopolymer concrete was established, and the fitting effects of the equations were favourable. Further analysis obtained the optimal ratio of geopolymer concrete, and the compressive strength and splitting tensile strengthes of the cube specimens cured for 28 d were 43.6 MPa and 2.87 MPa, respectively. Then, the pore structures of the geopolymer concretes with different W/B ratios were characterised with low-field NMR tests. The results indicate that the geopolymer concrete is predominantly microporous internally. The increased content of evaporable free water increases the porosity and coarsens the pore structure, which macroscopically manifests as a reduction in strength of the material. This study can provide some theoretical guidance for the promotion and engineering application of geopolymer concrete.

Taking soil layer 7 undisturbed fine sand layer in Shanghai as the test object, using GDS triaxial test apparatus, we carried out the orthogonal tests of 4 factors and 3 levels repeated pumping and recharging to explore the deformation characteristics of fine sand in dewatering. The strain and stress characteristics of single sample were discussed under the effect of dewatering and the orthogonal analysis of the nine samples were also conducted. It was revealed that axis strain of fine sand includes elastics, main consolidation and second consolidation, while the radius strain shows the up and down and increases constantly as the repeated pumping and recharging. And the water level drawdown has the greatest effect on the deformation characteristics of fine sand, and the intermittent time and recharging speed are moderate and nearly the same, and the precipitation speed is the least significant. The deformation mechanism of fine sand is closely related to its single grain microstructure. Finally the validity analysis of the orthogonal test shows the consistency and effectiveness of the test results. The research conclusion can provide technical guidance and theoretical basis for controlling ground settlement induced by dewatering in deep foundation pit engineering. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A suspension system for studying the characteristics of space robots working under microgravity condition and its gravity compensation are introduced. After modeling the dynamic characteristics of suspension module, the optimal control parameters are solved by numerical computation and simulation based on nonlinear programming. The result is verified through orthogonal tests for optimization aimed at precision and time optimization control. As a result of this study, an optimal precision tracking control scheme is gained for space robot test system to simulate the microgravity environment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
