Standards through HPC
To date, we have released three Standard Reference Materials (SRMs)
• one for cement paste (NIST SRM2492). Enter 2492 here for details on this SRM
• one for mortar (NIST SRM2493). Enter 2493 here for details on this SRM. This is the first SRM developed with the aid of supercomputing and certified based on computed values instead of physical measurement.
• one for concrete (NIST SRM 2497). Enter 2497 here for details on this SRM
Posters documenting the creation of the SRMS
- This poster details the history of creating concrete SRM:
- This poster describes the Modeling and Visualization for Standard Reference Materials for Concrete Rheology:
- Computation of Atomic Properties
The computations result in published properties that make their way into Standard Reference Data (SRD).
