Energy conservation management using latent heat storage (LHS) technique is nowadays
employed as a solution to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions …

In this piece of work, an attempt to solve the global energy crisis by presenting advanced
thermal energy storage technology was experimentally investigated. To enhance the …

Lower thermal conduction and higher specific heat of conventional black pavement result in
extreme surface temperatures during summers. Asphalt being highly temperature …

Abstract Increasingly, Climate Change (CC) is yielding more adverse climatic conditions that
lead to the occurrence of natural hazards. Within these CC-related phenomena, it is possible …

This study aims at investigating the application of pigments on mortars and evaluating how it
affects their thermal properties. In addition, it was analysed whether the addition of this type …

The growing disparity between energy demand and supply has rendered the storage of
thermal energy essential. In this study, experiments have been conducted on novel …

Titanium dioxide (TiO₂) has gained prominence in recent research, particularly as a
modifying agent for asphalt binders. However, the effects of its addition on the mechanical …

Pavement construction practices have evolved due to increasing environmental impact and
urban heat island (UHI) effects, as pavements, covering over 30% of urban areas, contribute …

Climate change significantly impacts transportation infrastructure, particularly asphalt
pavements. Similarly, the heat absorption of paved surfaces, especially conventional black …

This chapter deals with pavements for roads, cycle tracks, and footways. More specifically,
attention is focused on particular applications aimed at mitigating heat-related concerns …
