Nowadays, researchers are trying hard to minimize the harmful effect of infrastructure
development on the environment and ecosystem. The conversion of natural landscapes to …

In the last few decades, researchers have sought ways to counterbalance the effect of the
urban heat island (UHI) phenomenon of increased urban temperatures resulting from …

The use of phase-change materials (PCM) in concrete has revealed promising results in
terms of clean energy storage. However, the negative impact of the interaction between …

Self-cleaning cementitious materials have gained significant attention due to urban
environmental pollution. In this study, nano-TiO2 (NT) was first mixed with cement mortar …

Measurement of reaction rate amid Pozzolans and portlandite (Ca (OH 2) in the pore
solution of cementitious system is the essential mechanism that need to be quantified for any …

The prohibition of river sand mining has drawn the attention of researchers in finding
practicable alternatives. In the approach of finding these alternatives, it is essential to ensure …

Phase change materials (PCMs) have the ability to absorb and release a large amount of
energy during the process of transforming physical properties (ie, phase transition process) …

The present study investigated the microstructural properties of ordinary Portland cement
(OPC)-modified with minimum dosage of nano TiO2 on fresh and hardened cement mortar …
