Material characterization of carbon nanotube-reinforced cementitious composites
Description
An extensive data-set framework including various parameters, which alters the structural performance of CNT-reinforced cement-based composites is constructed for Machine learning models training purposes. Here, numerous mechanical attributes were collected via experimental tests conducted in previous literature. The properties which influence the mechanical behavior of NCT-reinforced materials were Cement type, Water-to-cement ratio (WC), Content of carbon nanotubes, External Diameter, Length, Functionalization method, Curing days, Curing temperature, and Dispersion method.
