Post‐earthquake structural damage identification and safety evaluation using point clouds

AbstractEfficient and accurate post‐earthquake damage assessment of building structures is critical for ensuring the human safety and structural integrity of affected buildings. However, manual inspections and traditional visual damage identification methods are often constrained by the inaccessibility of hard‐to‐reach regions and the subjectivity of human inspectors. To overcome these issues, this paper proposes a novel approach for rapid and precise post‐earthquake damage identification and evaluation using unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and point cloud techniques, significantly reducing the time, labor, and errors associated with traditional methods. A comprehensive testing on full‐scale reinforced concrete shear walls was conducted to validate the precision and feasibility of this method. The point cloud models of the shear wall were generated leveraging UAV imagery and laser scanning technology with millimeter‐scale accuracy. The proposed algorithm effectively segmented each target plane of the shear wall, achieving a relatively satisfactory overall Intersection over Union of 99.25%. The relative errors of deformation between the algorithm's identification and gauges measurements were within 5%. This study successfully segmented and quantified structural surface damage, including cracks and spalling. Finally, the structural safety of the shear wall was evaluated according to ATC‐20 guidelines, using indicators such as inclination, story drift ratio, crack width, and damage area. Furthermore, proposed method was also verified in real cases.

Effect of inclusion on contact damage evolution of wind turbine gears based on configurational force theory

The gear box of wind turbine is subjected to the complex environment such as random wind load for a long time, and the gear contact fatigue becomes a key factor limiting the stability and reliability of wind turbine equipment. Therefore, the research on the gear contact damage evolution mechanism is faced with difficulties such as complex stress states, damage anisotropy and failure modeling. However, traditional fracture mechanics and damage mechanics are limited in predicting the failure load of complex defects and evaluating the structural integrity. Material configurational force theory can describe the effect of defect configurational change on the free energy of materials and be used to predict the damage and failure behavior of materials. In this paper, a wind turbine gear contact damage model is constructed based on this theory. The gear contact interface stress field simulation analysis is carried out for the key bearing area of gear contact, and the gear contact damage evolution process under contact load is simulated. For the problem of gear failure caused by metal oxide inclusion, the damage evolution model based on Jk parameters is established. The damage evolution process of gear containing inclusions under contact loading is simulated numerically, and the influence of depth, shape and location of inclusions on the damage evolution behavior is analyzed. The research results have shown that the configurational force theory damage model can effectively simulate the contact damage phenomenon of gear and explain the pitting and spalling of gear surfaces. It has theoretical significance to predict contact fatigue life of gear accurately.

Strength and damage constitutive model of backfill body after high temperature treatment

Constructing mine heat storage reservoirs with water-blocking capabilities using functional filling technology is an innovative approach for underground high-temperature heat storage. However, high-temperature environments can easily cause thermal damage to the backfill body, posing significant risks to the safety of the heat storage reservoir. In this study, we conducted mechanical and microstructural tests on heated backfill body samples to observe changes in their mechanical properties and microstructure at varying temperatures. The test results show that as the temperature goes from room temperature (25 °C) to 350 °C, the backfill body’s compressive strength goes down a lot, with peak stress dropping from about 7 MPa to 3 MPa. At the same time, its ductility and ability to deform go up. Higher temperatures intensify shear failure, leading to the extension of cracks along the shear direction and subsequent surface spalling. The proportion of shear failure increased from 27.86 % to 68.21 %. The microstructure of ettringite, calcium silicate hydrate, and calcium hydroxide breaks down at different temperatures, which makes the pores bigger and the structure less rigid. This study developed a thermal damage constitutive model that incorporates acoustic emission parameters. We can use this model to evaluate and predict the deformation and strength characteristics of backfill after exposure to high-temperature treatment.

Durability of a Metakaolin-Incorporated Cement-Based Grouting Material in High Geothermal Tunnels.

To improve the durability of cement-based grout in high geothermal tunnel grouting projects, metakaolin was incorporated to replace 8% of the cement. The permeability, chloride penetration, and sulfate and carbonate erosion tests were carried out on the grout cured at varying temperatures (20, 30, 40, 50, and 60 °C). It was shown that with the increase in curing temperature, the impermeability and resistance to chloride penetration initially increased and then decreased, reaching the highest values at 40 °C. Furthermore, the incorporation of metakaolin into grout enhanced the impermeability by 11.11-38.91% and resistance to chloride penetration by 12.23-12.77%. As attacked by sulfate, the surface spalling of the specimen was more obvious with the increase in the curing temperature and immersion time. Conversely, the appearance remained almost unchanged under carbonate erosion. As immersion time increased, both the antisulfate and anticarbonate erosion coefficients declined. The effect of curing temperature on erosion resistance was assessed via the relative antierosion coefficient. When immersed in sulfate, the coefficient achieved the highest value of 1.08 as cured at 30 °C, and in carbonate, the coefficient reached a maximum of 0.99 as cured at 40 °C. Through scanning electron microscopy and binarized images, it was verified that gypsum and ettringite were formed during sulfate attack, leading to volume expansion and cracking, consequently reducing the strength. Meanwhile, in the case of carbonate erosion, calcium hydroxide (CH) and calcium silicate hydrate gel (C-S-H) were dissolved and degraded, resulting in a large number and size of pores in the grout. The research results have certain theoretical significances and reference values for the application of cement-based grouting materials in high geothermal environments.

Rolling contact fatigue property of gradient rare earth addition M50 bearing steel with surface nano-grains and its inhibited martensite decay

A gradient nanostructured surface layer of ∼600 μm in thickness was prepared on M50 steel with rare earth additions by a surface mechanical rolling treatment. The initial microstructure was refined into nanosized grains (∼29 nm in diameter) in the top surface layer, causing a significant increase of surface hardness. Meanwhile, the grain size increases, and the microhardness decreases gradually to the matrix values with increasing depth. Rolling contact fatigue tests showed that the fatigue lives are significantly increased by the gradient nanostructured surface layer. Analysis of failure mechanism revealed that both softening in the near surface layer and hardening in the subsurface occur under rolling contact testing. And surface spalling is the predominant failure mode, of which the cracks initiate from primary carbides in the top surface layer owing to surface softening. In gradient nanostructured samples, the nano-grains inhibit carbon migration by impeding dislocation movement in the near surface layer, so that martensite decay is suppressed. Consequently, the crack initiation is inhibited, and the fatigue property is enhanced.

Fault Intelligent Diagnosis for Distribution Box in Hot Rolling Based on Depthwise Separable Convolution and Bi-LSTM

The finishing mill is a critical link in the hot rolling process, influencing the final product’s quality, and even economic efficiency. The distribution box of the finishing mill plays a vital role in power transmission and distribution. However, harsh operating conditions can frequently lead to distribution box damage and even failure. To diagnose faults in the distribution box promptly, a fault diagnosis network model is constructed in this paper. This model combines depthwise separable convolution and Bi-LSTM. Depthwise separable convolution and Bi-LSTM can extract both spatial and temporal features from signals. This structure enables comprehensive feature extraction and fully utilizes signal information. To verify the diagnostic capability of the model, five types of data are collected and used: the pitting of tooth flank, flat-headed sleeve tooth crack, gear surface crack, gear tooth surface spalling, and normal conditions. The model achieves an accuracy of 97.46% and incorporates a lightweight design, which enhances computational efficiency. Furthermore, the model maintains approximately 90% accuracy under three noise conditions. Based on these results, the proposed model can effectively diagnose faults in the distribution box, and reduce downtime in engineering.

Effects of Impact Energy, Impact Frequency, and Test Time on Impact Wear Characteristics of Zirconia-Toughened Alumina Particles-Iron (ZTAp-Fe) Composites Using Response Surface Methodology

The study aimed to investigate the effects of wear parameters including impact energy, impact frequency, test time, and their interactions on the impact wear characteristics of high chromium white iron (HCWI) and zirconia toughened alumina (ZTA) reinforced HCWI composites fabricated by squeeze casting method using response surface methodology (RSM). The Box-Behnken Design (BBD) method was employed, and a linear model was developed to describe the relationship between wear loss and wear parameters, and to predict the wear behavior of the tested materials. The parameters of energy, frequency, and test time were found to be statistically significant, and positively influencing the wear behavior. Specifically, test time emerged as the most influential factor, followed by energy and frequency. The wear characteristics of HCWI are primarily characterized by shallower plowing and furrows, partial plastic deformation, surface spalling, and inserted abrasives. In contrast, the predominant wear mechanisms for ZTA/HCWI composites include slight breaking of ZTA particles, plowing, and cutting of the metal matrix; breaking and falling of ZTA particles; broken abrasive particles encrusted into the matrix; and the formation of spalling pits.

Thermophysical-mechanical behaviors of hot dry granite subjected to thermal shock cycles and dynamic loadings

Exploring dynamic mechanical responses and failure behaviors of hot dry rock (HDR) is significant for geothermal exploitation and stability assessment. In this study, via the split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) system, a series of dynamic compression tests were conducted on granite treated by cyclic thermal shocks at different temperatures. We analyzed the effects of cyclic thermal shock on the thermal-related physical and dynamic mechanical behaviors of granite. Specifically, the P-wave velocity, dynamic strength, and elastic modulus of the tested granite decrease with increasing temperature and cycle number, while porosity and peak strain increase. The degradation law of dynamic mechanical properties could be described by a cubic polynomial. Cyclic thermal shock promotes shear cracks propagation, causing dynamic failure mode of granite to transition from splitting to tensile-shear composite failure, accompanied by surface spalling and debris splashing. Moreover, the thermal shock damage evolution and coupled failure mechanism of tested granite are discussed. The evolution of thermal shock damage with thermal shock cycle numbers shows an obvious S-shaped surface, featured by an exponential correlation with dynamic mechanical parameters. In addition, with increasing thermal shock temperature and cycles, granite mineral species barely change, but the length and width of thermal cracks increase significantly. The non-uniform expansion of minerals, thermal shock-induced cracking, and water-rock interaction are primary factors for deteriorating dynamic mechanical properties of granite under cyclic thermal shock.

Wear characteristics evolution of helical gear with initial defects of bearing inner ring

This study investigated the wear characteristics and operational condition of gears with initial defects of the bearing inner ring. The working states of gears were evaluated through a combination of vibration signal analysis, wear debris concentration analysis, qualitative analysis of the wear debris, and tooth surface analysis. Based on the Hertz contact theory, a dynamic model for the gear drive system was constructed, enabling the simulation and comparison of vibration acceleration signals under normal and fault conditions. The research results revealed that bearing defects induced irregularities in vibration frequency and amplitude, adversely affecting the performance and stability of the gear system. Furthermore, these defects trigger the creation of substantial wear debris, which exacerbates gear wear and reduces the gear lifespan by about 15%. Additionally, bearing defects induced intermittent load spikes and uneven stress distribution across tooth contacts, resulting in localized high shear stresses, material flaking, and surface spalling. Consequently, initial defects of the bearing will accelerate gear wear progression and lead to abnormal wear patterns, potentially resulting in the premature failure of the gear train system. The study investigates the underlying mechanisms of gear wear evolution influenced by these defects and offers practical guidelines for the engineering, manufacturing, and maintenance of gear systems.

Dual skin effect and deep heterostructure of titanium alloy subjected to high-frequency electropulsing-assisted laser shock peening

Laser shock peening, an advanced technology for severe surface plasticity peening, encounters challenges such as shallow hardened layers and surface spalling when dealing with difficult-to-machine materials. In this study, we introduced a high-frequency electropulsing-assisted laser shock peening (HFEP-LSP) technique that coupled laser shock peening with high-frequency electric pulses to achieve a significant and deeper plastic deformation layer. In the HFEP-LSP technique, we first considered the dual “skin effect”, which coupled the skin effect of high-frequency electric pulses with the “skin effect” of the mechanical effect induced by the laser shock wave. An integrated experimental platform comprising an electric pulse generator, laser shock peening equipment, and a control system was built. A >1.6 mm deep compressive residual stress layer was obtained, and the depth of the plastic deformation layer increased by 83.3 %. Furthermore, we elucidated the dual “skin effect”-induced complex heterostructure and βm phase transition. A comprehensive analysis revealed the factors contributing to the deeper strengthening layer induced by HFEP-LSP, including the compressive residual stress and plastic deformation layers. In addition, the effects of laser shock peening and HFEP-LSP on the mechanical properties were investigated. Compared to the annealed samples, the ultimate tensile strength and elongation of the HFEP-LSP-treated samples were increased by 12.3 % and 57.1 %, respectively, with a fatigue life improvement of 176.4 %. The mechanism of synergistic improvement in strength and ductility was demonstrated.

Influence of the multiple element ions contained in seawater and sea sand on the freeze-thaw resistance of cementitious materials

Preparation of concrete with seawater and sea sand can increase the pore solution salinity due to the introduced multiple ions, which can affect the freeze-thaw resistance of concrete by changing the crystallization pressure and freezing temperature. This study aims to investigate the influence of these multiple element ions in seawater and sea sand on the freeze-thaw damage characteristics of cementitious materials. The seawater sea-sand mortar (SSM) samples and reference specimens (Freshwater and river sand-FRM) were first prepared with same mix design. The accelerated freeze-thaw tests were then conducted in an environment chamber under the temperature range of [-20 °C, 7 °C]. The surface spalling, mass loss, and mechanical performance (Compressive strength, stiffness and fracture resistance) evolution during freeze-thaw cycles were characterized to examine the freeze-thaw resistance. The influence mechanism is analyzed through characterization of pore solution and structure, and Discrete Element Method (DEM) simulation. It is indicated that the introduced multi-element ions from seawater and sea sand accelerate the freeze-thaw deterioration of cementitious materials. After 150 freeze-thaw cycles, the mass loss rates of SSM and FRM samples reach above 10 % and 8 %, respectively. And the corresponding reduction rates for dynamic modulus are 51 % and 36 % for the SSM and FRM specimens. The deterioration in compressive strength is slightly higher than the loss of fracture resistance. The mechanism analysis indicated that deteriorated freeze-thaw resistance due to the introduced multi-element ions from seawater and sea sand mainly originated from the degradation of pore structure and the increase in freezing pressure. This study can serve as a solid base for the durability design and application of seawater sea-sand concrete in cold regions.

Enhancing gas drainage efficiency in soft coal seams: Mechanically over-excavated cavities along borehole in floor tunnels

In addressing the challenge of gas drainage in soft coal seams, this study introduces an innovative technique involving mechanically over-excavated cavities along boreholes in floor tunnels. Through a combination of laboratory experiments, numerical simulations, and field tests, we investigate the efficacy of this method in weakening the coal structure and enhancing gas extraction. The influence of cavity parameters (inclined angle, cavity length and diameter, cavity number) on the mechanical properties and AE behavior of coal specimens were investigated by biaxial compression tests. Besides, the stress distribution and permeability evolution around the cavity were studied using FLAC3D combined with COMSOL software. Finally, the field tests were conducted in LiCun Coal Mine. The results indicate that a significant reduction in the compressive strength of coal specimens with increasing cavity dimensions. Notably, the peak stress in coal specimens decreased significantly as the cavity length, diameter, and number increased, by up to 42.09%, 39.38%, and 57.83%, respectively. In contrast, the peak stress increased with the cavity inclination angle, and it was about 1.14 times higher for specimens with a 90° angle than for those with a 15° angle. It is also found that the cavity inclination reduces the damage and acoustic emission activity of the specimen, while the cavity volume increases them and weakens the rock-bearing capacity. The failure modes of all specimens are shear failure combined with surface spalling. Numerical simulations employing FLAC3D and COMSOL software corroborated these results, demonstrating enhanced pressure relief and increased permeability around the cavities. Field tests conducted in the LiCun Coal Mine provided practical evidence of the method's efficacy, with a more than 3-fold increase in gas drainage concentration and volume observed compared to traditional drilling methods. By adopting mechanically over-excavated cavities, not only is the efficiency of gas drainage significantly improved, but also the safety and productivity of mining operations are enhanced. This study offers a promising and impactful solution for addressing gas drainage challenges in soft coal seams.

Low and high temperature effects on friction and wear performance of Cr-plated cylinder liner

Cr-plated cylinder liners with good wear and corrosion resistance as well as high strength are suitable for application in low-carbon fuel engines. A reciprocating friction and wear tester was used to measure the friction and wear performance of the Mo-sprayed piston ring and Cr-plated cylinder liner at low and high temperatures. For the low temperature conditions from −20 °C to 20 °C, the worn surface of tribo-pair was more prone to spalling. Once the load went up to 66 MPa under low temperatures, cylinder liner scuffing occurred. As the temperature increased from 90 °C to 240 °C, the honing textures of the Cr-plated cylinder liner presented gradually shallow with more abrasive marks along the sliding direction. The tribo-chemical reaction products of zinc dialkyldithiophosphates (ZDDP) with white bright spots distribution provided better protection of the tribo-pair to avoid severe fatigue spalling. The influence of temperature effects on the ZDDP decomposition and surface spalling damage should not be underestimated for Cr-plated cylinder liners.

Effect of Temperature, Vacuum Condition and Surface Roughness on Oxygen Boost Diffusion of Ti–6Al–4V Alloy

Oxygen boost diffusion (OBD) is an effective technology for improving the surface hardness of titanium and its alloys. In this present paper, the effect of temperature, vacuum condition and surface roughness on oxygen boost diffusion of Ti–6Al–4V alloy are studied. Test results show that OBD processing can be achieved at a low temperature and over long times, as well as at a high temperature and over short times. By comparing processing efficiency and mechanical properties, high temperatures and short times are preferred for OBD treatment. The influence of vacuum conditions on oxygen vacuum diffusion is significant. Under low vacuum degree conditions, relatively high oxygen content not only corrodes the OBD layer but also leads to spalling of the outmost surface of the OBD layer and the remaining oxide layer. High surface roughness can induce cracking not only in the oxide layer during the oxidation process but also in the outmost surface of the OBD layer during the vacuum diffusion process.

Fault diagnosis of tooth surface spalling based on variational mode decomposition and maximum correlation kurtosis method

As the early fault features of tooth surface spalling are very weak and difficult to extract because of random noise and other types of signal interference, a method that combines maximum correlation kurtosis uncoiling and variational mode decomposition is proposed herein. First, a series of modes are obtained by variational mode decomposition, and the kurtosis criterion is applied to select the modes containing rich fault information for reconstruction and noise reduction. Second, the maximum correlation kurtosis deconvolution method is used to enhance the selected signals. Finally, the fault features are extracted by envelope demodulation of the reconstructed signal. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by analysis, and the different frequency components of the vibration signals of tooth surface spalling faults are shown to be separated accurately.

Resistance of Concrete with Various Types of Coarse Aggregate to Coupled Effects of Thermal Shocks and Chemicals.

Rigid pavements at military airfields experience surface deterioration within 6-18 months of construction. The cause of this degradation is mainly due to combined exposure to repeated heat shocks from jet engine exhaust and spilled aviation oils (hydrocarbons). Surface degradation occurs in the form of disintegration of aggregates and cement paste into small pieces that pose severe risks of physical injury to maintenance crews or damage to an aircraft engine. Since coarse aggregates typically occupy 60-80% of the concrete volume, aggregates' thermal properties and microstructure should play a crucial role in the degrading mechanism. At high temperatures, concrete with lightweight aggregates is reported to have better performance compared to concrete with normal-weight aggregate. Thus, the present study carried out a detailed investigation of the mechanical and thermal performance of lightweight aggregate concrete exposed to the combined effects of high temperatures and hydrocarbon oils simultaneously. To replicate harsh airfield operating conditions, standard-sized concrete cylinders were exposed to elevated temperatures using an electric oven. Additionally, a mixture of equal parts of aircraft engine oil, hydraulic oil, and kerosene was applied before each exposure to high temperatures. To identify the resistance of different concrete with various lightweight coarse aggregates, pumice, perlite, lytag (sintered fly ash), and crushed brick were used as lightweight coarse aggregates in concrete. Also, basalt aggregate concrete was used as a reference. After curing, cylinders were tested for the ultimate strength. Later, after every 20 cyclic exposures, three cylinders from each aggregate type were tested for residual comprehensive strength, thermal, chemical, and microstructural (SEM) properties. Overall, concrete with crushed brick aggregate and lytag used in this study showed superior resistance to the simulated airfield conditions. The findings of this study will provide valuable insights to select an appropriate coarse aggregate type for military airfield pavement construction, aiming to effectively minimize surface spalling.

Study of the damage characteristics and corrosion mechanism of tunnel lining in a sulfate environment

Sulfate corrosion is one of the main causes of tunnel lining deterioration. An accurate understanding of the damage characteristics and corrosion mechanism of sulfate-corroded tunnels is the basis for the anti-corrosion design and damage control of the tunnel lining. Based on a project concerning a sulfate-corroded tunnel in the mountainous area of Southwest China, this study conducted a field investigation and laboratory tests and, combined with existing research data, summarized the damage characteristics and corrosion mechanism of this type of tunnel and proposed the characteristic corrosion state of tunnel lining in a sulfate environment. The results show that 1) sulfate corrosion led to leakage, surface spalling crystallization, and strength loss, and the corrosion typically occurred at the arch waist and arch foot. 2) Physical and chemical corrosion occurred in the tunnel lining, and the corrosion products included sodium sulfate, calcium carbonate, gypsum, ettringite, and thaumasite. 3) In China, this type of tunnel is mainly located in the Southwest and Northwest, and its lining is in a special state of “one-sided accelerated corrosion.”

Study on wear behavior and mechanism of 6007 Si3N4 full-ceramic ball bearing under different load conditions

This study investigated the effects of various load conditions on the wear characteristics of Si3N4 full-ceramic ball bearings in response to 6007 Si3N4 full-ceramic ball bearing operation-related wear problems. Using an ABLT-1A tester, the wear behavior of 6007 Si3N4 ceramic ball bearings was investigated under loads of 100, 500, and 800 N, with a rotation speed of 6000 r/min and a duration of 12,000 min. The test load, and the 100 and 500 N radial loads had an equilibrium temperature difference of about 1.91°C, while the 500 and 800 N radial loads exhibited an equilibrium temperature difference of about 2.35°C. Each group’s temperature rate difference is evident. Bearing internal clearance increased by 35.7%, 50.34%, and 56.1%, respectively, and the fault frequencies of the bearing elements appeared within the vibration signal. The surface roughness of each component of the bearing increased with the increase in the test load, while a large number of plow grooves and spalling appeared on the surface, and severe cage wear was observed. Results show that when load, temperature, clearance, runout, and frequency domain amplitude increased, the following were observed: development of rolling body surface spalling and a large area of wear spot; raceway surface crater along the direction of movement of the fur-row; obvious scratches were observed on the cage surface in the pocket hole edge melting phenomenon; the cage became the bearing system’s "weak link.” The test results are a reference value for the wear behavior of Si3N4 full-ceramic ball bearings under this test load.

Tribological and corrosion behaviour of medical grade 316LVM steel by low temperature hybrid gaseous nitriding and carburizing

This study approached a low temperature hybrid gaseous nitriding and carburizing at varying temperature and gas composition to develop S-phase layer on 316LVM steel. The hybrid gaseous treatment at 475 °C and 10 % CH4 developed a distinct S-phase layer that is harder (1444 ± 32 HV0.025) than untreated surface. The S-phase layers are effective in reducing specific wear rates by 67 % to 1.19 ± 0.05 × 10−3 mm3/Nm, coefficients of friction by 26 % to 0.49 ± 0.02, and corrosion rate by 23 % to 6.02 ± 0.32 µm/y. Both untreated and treated surfaces had dominant abrasive wear mechanisms but on treated surface spalling holes were observed. This research highlights low-temperature hybrid gaseous nitriding and carburizing is promising for improving 316 LVM steel surface for orthopedic.

Durability development of lightweight and high-strength engineered cementitious composites subject to combined sulfate–chloride attack under freeze–thaw cycles

A novel lightweight high-strength engineered cementitious composite (LECC) was developed, and its mechanical property changes and the resultant durability evolution under the triple coupling factors of chloride attack, sulfate attack, and freeze–thaw cycles were studied. The results indicate that the salt solutions can accelerate the failure of LECC under freeze–thaw cycles. Salt solutions accelerated the tensile properties degradation of LECCs, and the deterioration degree was LECC-S (sulfate) > LECC-CS (chloride-sulfate) > LECC-C (chloride). The influence degree of salt solutions on mass loss was LECC-CS > LECC-C > LECC-S, while their influence on relative dynamic elastic modulus was LECC-S > LECC-CS > LECC-C. The surface spalling and internal structure destruction of LECC after salt freezing provided a favorable channel for CO2 penetration in the environment and the external sulfate–chloride environment under low temperature offered highly suitable conditions for the formation of expansive thaumasite. The combined physical and chemical attacks of sulfate promoted chloride diffusion, but chloride ion delayed sulfate’s diffusion and expansion reaction. This study more comprehensively revealed the durability development of LECC in some abominable environments and provided data support for the engineering application of LECC.
