Moisture Content and Bulking of Aggregate

207
The moisture content of aggregates is a crucial factor in construction, particularly in concrete mixing, as it influences the total water required in the mix. Moisture content represents the water coated on the exterior surface of the aggregate existing in a saturated and surface-dry condition. The total water content of a moist aggregate is the sum of its moisture content and water absorption.
When aggregates are exposed to rain or sit in stockpiles, they absorb moisture, which must be...

Area of Science:

  • Plant Biology
  • Materials Science
  • Biophysics

Background:

  • Lignocellulosic tissues exhibit complex hygroscopic shrinkage behavior.
  • Understanding this deformation is crucial for various applications, including biomaterials and wood science.
  • Previous methods lacked the resolution to precisely quantify cellular-level shrinkage.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate hygroscopic shrinkage in diverse lignocellulosic tissues using Digital Volume Correlation (DVC).
  • To compare the accuracy of different DVC software (Avizo™, elastix, MBS-3D-OptFlow) for analyzing cellular deformation.
  • To elucidate the anisotropic shrinkage patterns within plant cell walls.

Main Methods:

  • X-ray nano-holotomography was employed to image wet and dry samples of plant tissues.
  • Digital Volume Correlation (DVC) analysis was performed using Avizo™, elastix, and MBS-3D-OptFlow.
  • Validation was conducted using artificially deformed datasets to assess accuracy.

Main Results:

  • Anisotropic shrinkage was observed, with greater deformation along the cell length than radially.
  • Within cell walls, radial shrinkage exceeded tangential shrinkage.
  • The image registration toolkit elastix demonstrated superior accuracy in DVC analysis.
  • Abundant structural features in cell walls enhanced DVC accuracy.

Conclusions:

  • Digital Volume Correlation (DVC) is a validated and effective method for studying hygroscopic deformation in lignocellulosic tissues.
  • The study provides quantitative insights into anisotropic shrinkage at the cellular level.
  • Elastix software offers high accuracy for DVC applications in biological materials.
