High-temperature effect on mechanical properties of fiber reinforced concretes including waste tire rubber
(Wiley, 2022)
In this paper, concretes including three different fiber types (carbon steel fiber [CSF], forta ferro fiber [FFF], and polypropylene fiber [PPF]) with different percentages by volume (0.5%, 1%, and 1.5%) and crumb rubber ...
Electromagnetic skin depth of cement paste and its thickness dependence
(Elsevier, 2022)
The skin depth delta describes the ability of electromagnetic radiation (particularly microwave) to penetrate a material. This ability is relevant to radar-related applications, electromagnetic interference shielding and ...
Self-sensing reinforced concrete for damage assessment and real time strength development in smart structures
(Taylor and Francis, 2022)
In this study, a self-sensing smart structure was developed with a novel approach. Electromagnetic wave based self-sensing structure designed by sending waves to the reinforced concrete structure through the reinforcement ...
Capacitance-based stress self-sensing in asphalt without electrically conductive constituents, with relevance to smart pavements
(Elsevier, 2022)
The capacitance-based stress self-sensing in asphalt without device or functional constituent incorporation is reported for the first time, with relevance to smart pavements. Stress sensing enables weighing. Without the ...
Improving Asphalt Binder and Hot Mix Asphalt Aging Properties by Adding Synthetic Polyboron and Organic Magnesium Oxide
(Springer, 2022)
In this study, asphalt binders were modified with polymeric triethylene glycol-based polyboron (PTEGB) and organic-based magnesium oxide (OBMO) at different concentrations. The materials used as additives were synthesized ...
An Assessment of Transforming a City into a Construction Sector Metabolism via Industrial Symbiosis Implementations
(Springer, 2022)
This study examines waste flow network differences concerning future industrial symbiosis (IS) implementations to assess the possibility of transforming an entire city into an industrial ecosystem and thereby increasing ...
Carbonation Depth and Permeability of Quaternary Hybrid Fiber Concretes
(American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2022)
Concrete structures are exposed to water throughout their service life. Nowadays, fiber-reinforced concrete is the most preferred concrete due to its superior mechanical properties. However, good mechanical properties alone ...
Investigation of the Effect of Alkali Curing on the Strength Properties of GBFS-Added Composites
(American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2022)
Large amounts of waste products have been and most probably will continue to be produced with urbanization, industrialization, and technological developments. The study presented herein is devoted to using blast furnace ...
Sinusoidally located concrete metastructures for attenuation of seismic surface vibrations
(Springer, 2022)
In this numerical and experimental study, we designed sinusoidal located concrete-based boreholes which are candidate for seismic shielding applications. To attenuate seismic wave transmission in an area, proposed design ...
A comparative study of estimating solar radiation using machine learning approaches: DL, SMGRT, and ANFIS
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2022)
Solar energy has a key role in producing clean and emissions-free power compare to conventional methods. However, sustainable development also requires a reliable and predictable energy source. It also needs methods to ...
