Self-Healing of Concrete - A New Technology for a More Sustainable Future
Self-healing materials are a class of smart materials that have the structurally incorporated ability to repair damage caused by mechanical usage over time. The inspiration comes from biological systems, which have the ability to heal after being wounded. Initiation of cracks and other types of damage on a microscopic level has been shown to change thermal, electrical, and acoustic properties, ...
متن کاملFRP Dowels for Concrete Pavements
A Paper for the World Wise Conference 1999 Winnipeg, Manitoba © November 15, 1999 Introduction Joints are used in concrete pavements in order to control cracking due to thermal and environmental conditions. Dowels span joints to transfer load from one slab to an adjacent slab and to provide vertical and horizontal alignment. Currently, smooth epoxy coated steel dowels are placed across transver...
متن کاملIntroduction: The FuturICT Knowledge Accelerator Towards a More Resilient and Sustainable Future
The FuturICT project is a response to the European Flagship Call in the Area of Future and Emerging Technologies, which is planning to spend 1 billion EUR on each of two flagship projects over a period of 10 years. FuturICT seeks to create an open, global but decentralized, democratically controlled information platform that will use online data and real-time measurements together with novel th...
متن کاملUltrasonic Tomography Technique for Evaluation Concrete Pavements
Ultrasonic tomography is an emerging technology that shows promise for quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) during construction, or for making rehabilitation decisions in concrete pavements. However, the benefits of this emerging technology have not yet been fully captured for widespread use in highway infrastructure management. Verification of a state-of-the-art ultrasonic tomography devi...
متن کاملJoint Deterioration in Concrete Pavements
Concrete pavements located in cold climates have been experiencing premature joint deterioration. Entrapment of moisture in the joints saturates the surrounding concrete, rendering it susceptible to freeze–thaw damage. To identify and to isolate the variables that might be causing this localized deterioration, concrete cores were obtained from deteriorated and non-deteriorated sections of US 35...
