Cement concrete is a ubiquitous material used extensively in infrastructure worldwide.
However, cement concrete would degrade during its long-term service life. The limited real …

Recently, we proposed a new strategy to develop a three-dimensional conductive network
within a cement mortar by coating sand with graphene. In such a design, the interfacial …

Abstract Weigh-in-motion (WIM) systems provide the opportunity to measure the weight of
vehicles, including individual axles, as they pass over the pavement. This study focuses on …

Highly conductive concrete/mortar has been long pursued to realize structural health
monitoring in the development of smart-cement-based facilities. However, it remains …

Traditionally, conductive fillers are mixed directly with cement matrix before binding with
aggregates to develop piezoresistive cement-based sensors. This results in the most …

The interface of aggregate and cementitious phase largely determines the mechanical
properties and durability performances of cement mortar and concrete. This work …

The sensing ability induced by carbon nanomaterials has attracted considerable attention in
the scientific community for use in cement and concrete. However, the application of carbon …

Unlike conventional approaches of direct addition of carbon-based conductive fillers into
cement matrix in developing smart sensing composites, this study proposes a targeted and …

Abstract Self-Sensing Cement Composites (SSC) made from cementitious composites with
electrically conductive elements have many applications in structural health monitoring …

This study explores the application of multifunctional cement composites prepared with
graphene-coated conductive aggregate (Gr@ Ag) and carbon fiber (CF). The …
