Comparative simulation of various nanofiber cement composites
Graphene Nanoplatelet (GNP) and Montmorillonite Nano Clay (MNC) rapidly flatter the most popular cementitious materials due to their physical, chemical, and mechanical behavior. These two nanofibers are introduced as micro reinforcement in the cementitious material. The analytical analysis is carried out by ANSYS 15 to reduce the cost and no of trials. This paper generates multiple numbers of the 3D-RVE (Represent Volume Element) pull-out model for the comparative study of nano-cement composites. RVE represents the entire volume of yielding for a minimum volume of measurement. The GNPs and MNCs are added to the cement matrix with various percentages (0.02%, 0.08%, 0.1%, 0.15%, 0.17%, 0.22%, and 0.3%) by the weight of cement. After simulating the RVE models with proper boundary conditions, the behavior of nano-cementitious material is observed. A comparative study of all percentage variations revealed that the optimum percentages of nanofiber for GNP and MNC nanofiber are 0.17% and 0.15%, respectively. GNP nano cement composites give a better result to enhance the mechanical behavior of nano cement composite.
