Cement‐based materials can be modified for microwave reflection/absorption. Admixtures
(particles or short fibers) include conductive, dielectric, and magnetic ones, used solely or in …

The dielectric behavior of unpoled cured cement-based materials enables these materials to
serve as electroceramics. The behavior entails the DC polarization (apparent DC electrical …

This study is focused to develop a broadband and high-efficiency electromagnetic (EM)
shielding cement composites by the application of different scales conductive fillers, such as …

Self-sensing composites based on carbon fibers (CFs) offer a wide range of remarkable
properties, making them suitable for various significant industrial and engineering …

The effectiveness of electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding is valuable for construction
materials and can be enhanced by the addition of carbon fiber to cement. This work reports …

Self-sensing concrete is a smart material known for its cost-effectiveness in structural health-
monitoring areas, which converts the external stimuli into a stress/strain sensing parameter …

Electrically conductive cementitious composites (ECCCs) have been widely used to
complete functional and smart construction projects. Graphite, due to its low cost and wide …

Cementitious composites are the most widely used construction materials; however, their
poor durability necessitates frequent monitoring and repairs. The emergence of self-sensing …

The fringing electric field increases the apparent relative permittivity of cement when the
electrodes do not cover the entire specimen area. The apparent permittivity increases with …

The addition to cement paste of latex (styrene-butadiene, latex/cement mass ratio≤ 0.30,
where latex refers to the latex dispersion with 48 wt.% latex solid) increases the relative …
