Geopolymers are recommended as an alternative to Portland Cement, which has high CO 2
emissions. Geopolymers are a more environment-friendly construction material produced …

This paper presents a newly developed high strain-hardening, lightweight, engineered
cementitious composites, using fly ash cenospheres as the filler. That has tensile strain …

Concrete is brittle in nature which is why different materials have been used to improve this
inherent behavior of concrete. In this experimental study, the effect of simultaneous use of …

To further improve the utilization rate of fly ash cenospheres (FAC) in cement-based
systems, this paper introduced adopting nano-SiO 2 (NS) particles to develop a new high …

The application of cellulose nanocrystal has lately been investigated as polymer composites
reinforcement owing to favorable characteristics of biodegradability and cost effectiveness …

Growing security threats demand structures offering exceptional energy absorption and heat
dissipation capabilities with minimum damage. Sandwich structures are adopted widely for …

High-performance cementitious composites with self-compacting characteristics are gaining
due importance in meeting the challenges of the modern world. This experimental study …

Lightweight high-toughness cementitious composites (LHTCC) were induced to produce pre-
cracks through bending and tensile loads, which were self-healed under dry-wetting cycles …

This research work investigates the low-velocity impact induced damage behavior and its
influence on the residual flexural response of glass/epoxy composites improved with milled …

The development of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) provides a new approach to limiting
the waste of natural resources. In the present study, the mechanical properties and …
