Structure–Property Modeling of Cement-Based Multi-Component Composites Using Ensemble Machine Learning and Explainable Feature Attribution
Abstract: Accurate prediction of compressive strength is central to structure–property optimization, quality control, and sustainability-driven design in cement-based composite materials. Cementitious systems represent heterogeneous multi-phase composites composed of reactive binder matrices and dispersed aggregate phases, whose macroscopic mechanical performance emerges from complex nonlinear interactions among constituents and curing-dependent microstructural evolution. This study develops a data-driven structure–property modeling framework to quantify the nonlinear dependence of compressive strength on multi-component composite composition and …
