    • Effect of hollow corundum microspheres additive on physical and mechanical properties and thermal shock resistance behavior of refractory castable 

      Stonys, Rimvydas; Malaiškienė, Jurgita; Škamat, Jelena; Antonovič, Valentin (5th international conference “Innovative materials, structures and technologies” IMST 2022, 2022)
      Most high temperature processes in industrial furnaces are combined with cycles of heating and cooling. In these applications, refractory materials are exposed to temperature gradient during operation, which causes thermal ...
    • Experimental and numerical study of punching shear response of pedestrian bridge fibre reinforced concrete slabs 

      Rimkus, Arvydas; Gribniak, Viktor; Jakubovskis, Ronaldas (MECHCOMP 2019: 5th International conference on mechanics of composites, Instituto Superior Técnico, Lisbon, Portugal, 1-4 July 2019 : book of abstracts, 2019)
      This study is a part of the ongoing project, which aims to develop an innovative stress-ribbon pedestrian bridge structure that comprises fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) deck adhesively joined to the ribbon bands made of ...
    • Impact of trace elements in Portland cement on the bacterial viability in biological concrete 

      Ivaškė, Augusta; Guobužaitė, Simona; Jakubovskis, Ronaldas; Urbonavičius, Jaunius (EYEC Monograph: 10th European young engineers conference, 4–6 April 2022, Faculty of Chemical and Process Engineering, Warsaw University of Technology, 2022)
      The self-healing ability of biological concrete is closely related to the long-term viability of bacteria in the concrete matrix. However, the ability of bacteria to survive, grow and retain their metabolic activity in ...
    • Investigating viability of alkaliphilic Bacillus species in biological self-healing concrete 

      Ivaškė, Augusta; Guobužaitė, Simona; Jakubovskis, Ronaldas; Gribniak, Viktor; Urbonavičius, Jaunius (FEMS Online Conference on Microbiology, 28–31 October 2020 : Electronic abstract book, 2020)
      Background: Concrete is the most widely used building material in the world. However, cracks inevitably open up in concrete structures. Some bacteria can precipitate calcium carbonate crystals that fill the cracks. The ...
    • Investigation on the CAC-based refractory concrete explosive spalling 

      Antonovič, Valentin; Kudžma, Andrius; Plioplys, Linas; Stonys, Rimvydas; Gribniak, Viktor (XIX International scientific-technical conference "Refractory materials: manufacturing, test methods, application", 18-20 May 2022 in Wisła Jawornik, Poland : abstracts = XIX Międzynarodowa konferencja naukowa-techniczna "Materiały ogniotrwałe: wytwarzanie, metody badań, stosowanie", 18-20.05.2022, Wisła Jawornik : streszczenia referatów, 2022)
    • Investigations of cement composite with expanded glass filler at high temperatures 

      Boris, Renata; Antonovič, Valentin; Malaiškienė, Jurgita; Stonys, Rimvydas (5th international conference “Innovative materials, structures and technologies” IMST 2022, 2022)
      Lightweight refractory composite with expanded glass filler, calcium aluminate cement, additives of metakaolin waste, microsilica and hybrid deflocculants were investigated. The microstructure analysis were performed by ...
    • The potential of Bacillus pseudofirmus as healing agent of biological self-healing concrete in North Europe region 

      Ivaškė, Augusta; Guobužaitė, Simona; Jakubovskis, Ronaldas; Gribniak, Viktor; Urbonavičius, Jaunius (Open readings 2021: 64th international conference for students of physics and natural sciences, March 16-19, 2021, Vilnius, Lithuania : abstract book, 2021)
      Concrete is the most widely used building material in the world. However, cracks inevitably open up in concrete structures. Microbiologically induced calcite precipitation (MICP) can be used to fill cracks arising in ...
    • Viability of Bacillus species in the biological self-healing concrete produced with different cement types 

      Ivaškė, Augusta; Jakubovskis, Ronaldas; Malaiškienė, Jurgita; Urbonavičius, Jaunius (FEMS Conference on Microbiology in association with Serbian Society of Microbiology, 30 June - 2 July, 2022, Serbia : electronic abstract book, 2022)
      Backround: Due to the ability of some bacteria to precipitate calcium carbonate, the cracks in the concrete can be healed. The biggest challenge of developing self-healing concrete is to ensure the viability of bacteria ...
    • Viability of Bacillus species in the biological self-healing concrete with different cement types 

      Ivaškė, Augusta; Jakubovskis, Ronaldas; Malaiškienė, Jurgita; Urbonavičius, Jaunius (Mikrobiologija 2022. Lietuvos mikrobiologų draugijos konferencija, balandžio 28-29 d., Birštonas : pranešimų santraukų knyga, 2022)
      Concrete is the most widely used building material in the world. However, one of its drawbacks is the inevitable opening of the cracks. Due to the ability of some bacteria to precipitate calcium carbonate, the cracks in ...
