As chemicals are widely used for snow and ice control of highway and airfield pavements or
aircrafts, recent years have seen increased concerns over their potentially detrimental …

Ice on the pavement severely hindered the traffic capacity and driving safety. The traditional
anti-icing approaches, such as chemical salt and mechanical device, negatively influence …

Pore structure characteristics of cementitious materials play a critical role in the transport
properties of concrete structures. This paper develops a novel framework for modeling …

The rigorous organic and inorganic laminated structure of nacre has been developed by
millions of years of biological evolution against various external impacts, including …

This paper reports on the potential benefits of micro-or nano-sized materials for asphalt
mixtures used on pavements, specifically when they are exposed to water or deicing …

A novel repair method has been developed for steel bridge girders with corrosion damage at
the ends. The concept involves welding headed studs to the intact portion of the web plate …

Corrosion is one of the most severe threats to the stability of steel bridges and regular rust
removal techniques is needed for the maintenance of steel bridges. Currently the correlation …

Anti-Corrosion coatings are extensively applied in maintenance and vehicles used by
transportation agencies, which have been used to protect a substrate by providing a barrier …

Preservation of metals in infrastructures and other assets requires cost-effective and
sustainable solutions such as green corrosion inhibitors. This study assesses an apple …

In this study, a nanoengineered thermal-energy storing cementitious composite incorporated
with a microencapsulated phase change material (m-PCM) and the combination of multi …
