&nbsp;In order to conduct flow analysis of cement paste, mortar and concrete, it is important to obtain rheological constants representing the flow characteristics of the material. In this study, we measured cement paste's rheological constants by using rotational viscometer. Here, it was measured in consideration of flow history on cement paste. Furthermore, in this study, we derived the flow constitutive equation of the cement paste and proposed a marker particle visco-plastic finite element method. Using this marker particle visco-plastic finite element method, simulation of flow test of cement paste was attempted.<br>&nbsp;The results obtained from the experimental study and analytical study of this research can be summarized as follows.<br>&nbsp;Using a rotational viscometer, the flow curve of cement paste was measured for various shear conditions. It was confirmed that the flow curves of all cement paste samples can be approximated by the Bingham model under all shear conditions. And the obtained flow curve was approximated by the Bingham model, and the rheological constants (yield value and plastic viscosity) of the paste sample was determined. Thixotropy was confirmed in the flow characteristics of the cement paste sample from the obtained flow curves and rheological constants.<br>&nbsp;The cement paste was regarded as a visco-plastic fluid and derived the flow constitutive equation of visco-plastic fluid using overstress theory. The obtained flow constitutive equation considers non-Bingham characteristic, flow history, and pressure dependency of yield value. It was confirmed that the flow curves of cement pastes differing depending on shear conditions can be expressed by the proposed flow constitutive equation.<br>&nbsp;Marker particle visco-plastic finite element method was used to analyze the flow test of cement pastes. The results obtained by the analysis agreed well with the experimental results. Therefore, the marker particle visco-plastic finite element method and the rheological constants are effective.

<p> Concrete flow analysis is important, because it is possible to visualize how high fluidity concrete flows in the concrete placing form and in the gap between reinforcing bars.</p><p> In this study, MPS (Moving Particle Semi-implicit) method was used as a concrete flow analysis method. First, the flow of Bingham fluid between parallel plates was analyzed, and the validity of the analysis method was verified. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the proposed method was confirmed by comparing the results of slump flow analysis and test results. The research results of Kokado et al.<sup>3)</sup> were used for the rheological constants (yield value, plastic viscosity) of concrete used for slump flow analysis.</p><p> The results obtained in this study can be summarized as follows.</p><p> The flow of Bingham fluid between parallel plates was reproduced using the proposed MPS analysis. As the result, when the particle size was 20 mm, it was different from the theoretical value, and when the particle size was 10 mm, 5 mm, 2.5 mm, it agreed with the theoretical value.</p><p> The flow of Bingham fluid between parallel plates was reproduced by changing the value of the stress growth index m of the regularized Bingham model with m = 1 and 10,100. As a result, the theoretical value agreed well with the MPS analysis result in the fast range of flow velocity. In the range of slow flow, the MPS analysis results at the stress growth index m = 1 were faster than the theoretical solutions at the center of the parallel plate. Therefore, in order to represent the Bingham fluid, it is necessary to increase the value of the stress growth index m. In this study, the stress growth index m was set to 100 and used for MPS analysis.</p><p> The slump flow test was reproduced by MPS analysis using a regularized Bingham model with a particle size of 5 mm and a stress growth index of m = 100, assuming that the high fluidity concrete was a Bingham fluid. As the result, it was well reproduced in the range of slump flow value of about 500 mm, however, it tended to flow in the experimental result as the slump flow value increased from 600 mm to 700 mm.</p><p> When the slump flow value is less than 600 mm, the spread curve of the flow can be reproduced within the range of the rheological constant within the 95% upper and lower limit prediction interval. However, at the slump flow value of 700 mm, the experimental value flows more than the analytical result using the yield value of 95% lower limit. According to the results of the finite difference analysis in the literature (4), at a slump flow value of over 600 mm, the measured value tends to flow more than the analytical result. Therefore, if the slump flow value exceeds 600 mm, the yield value by the lifting sphere viscometer test may have been evaluated higher. Furthermore, high fluidity concrete with a slump flow value exceeding 600 mm may exhibit non-Bingham properties in the low shear rate region.</p>
