Abstract
Abstract Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation and a combination of UV irradiation and ozone treatment of polyolefin fibers were investigated for possible improvement of mechanical properties in concrete composites. In both treatment methods, various fiber exposure durations were used, and surface modification was monitored by measuring the water contact angle. Untreated and treated fibers were added to concrete at 0.32 % by volume, and the specimens were tested for flexural strength according to ASTM International specifications. Fiber surface treatment by UV alone was found to be an unattractive technique based on the results of flexural tests and contact angle measurements. Ten minutes of UV and ozone surface treatment of fibers was found to improve the composite peak stress by 11 % and the toughness by 4 %; longer periods of exposure led to lower flexural strength results, perhaps as a result of fiber deformation or degradation.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
