In efforts to secure long-term concrete durability performances, studies on bio-mineralization
mediated self-healing concrete as an eco-friendly and sustainable crack-healing method …

Cracks in concrete structures can serve as pathways for aggressive chemical substances
that can lead to a progressive deterioration of the cement stone as well as of the …

Earth concrete is composed of fine particles which make them very sensitive to humidity and
affects their long-term durability. In this study, the effect of wetting/drying cycles on earth …

This study investigates the effect of the modification of cement-based composites with
mechanically activated fly ash from lignite combustion in fluidized bed boilers (MAFBC fly …

In this paper, the issue of self-compacting concrete (SCC) with the addition of polyethylene
terephthalate (PET) recycled aggregate is addressed. The PET utilized was a waste fraction …

This study presents a deep convolutional neural network metasensor for measuring crack
width from high-resolution images and brightness profiles. Procedures of training, testing …

Earthen construction techniques possess without any doubt a rich historical legacy, being
able to assess an efficient combination of structural stability, thermal mass properties, and …

The wide use of multi-component cement of highly reduced Portland clinker factor is largely
impeded by detrimental changes in the rheological properties of concrete mixes, a …

This paper reveals the relationships between key factors that determine the ability of
cementitious composites to self-heal autogenously and specific measures for quantifying the …

This study aims to experimentally investigate the ultrasonic behavior of fresh cement
focusing on the contribution of the entrapped air bubbles. Frequency dispersion and …
