In this paper, we introduce and study the notions of fuzzy quotient module, fuzzy (simple, semisimple) module and fuzzy maximal submodule. Also, we give many basic properties about these notions.

Let  be a commutative ring with identity and  be an -module. In this work, we present the concept of semi--maximal sumodule as a generalization of -maximal submodule.

We present that a submodule  of an -module  is a semi--maximal (sortly --max) submodule if  is a semisimple -module (where  is a submodule of ). We  investegate some properties of these kinds of modules.

The present investigation considers the effect of curing temperatures (30, 40, and 50˚C) and curing compound method on compressive strength development of high performance concrete, and compares the results with concrete cured at standard conditions and curing temperature (21˚C). The experimental results showed that at early ages, the rate of strength development at high curing temperature is greater than at lower curing temperature, the maximum increasing percentage in compressive strength is 10.83% at 50C˚ compared with 21C˚ in 7days curing age. However, at later ages, the strength achieved at higher curing temperature has been less, and the maximum percentage of reduction has been 5.70% at curing temperature 50C˚ compared with 21
