Summary
Nanotechnology,
which can be considered as a new science and engineering field; It is one of
the leading technologies that are candidates to solve many problems faced by
human beings, especially energy. Seeing this fact, scientists started to work
in various fields of nanotechnology and began to look for ways to develop new
technologies. Issues such as energy efficiency, increase in cooling
performance, electricity storage capacity, environmental benefits can be given
as examples of the numerous benefits nanotechnology provides to humanity.
This
special issue on "Nanotechnology
applications in fluid dynamics and materials science" will
include, but not be limited to, innovative and original applications of
nanotechnology in the field of fluid dynamics and materials science. Experimental
and numerical studies in the field of nanotechnology in
fluid dynamics and materials science, which will contribute to humanity
and science, will be carefully evaluated.

Abstract In this study, the workability of cement-based grouts containing n-TiO
2 nanoparticles and fly ash has been investigated experimentally. Several characteristic quantities (including, but not limited to, the marsh cone flow time,
the mini slump spreading diameter and the plate cohesion meter value) have been measured for different percentages of these additives. The use of fly ash as a mineral additive has been found to result in improvements in terms
of workability behavior as expected. Moreover, if nano titanium oxide is also used, an improvement can be
obtained regarding the bleeding values for the cement-based grout mixes. Using such experimental data,…
