Abstract: This study investigates the performance of two cementitious systems exposed to sodium chloride solution and thermal cycling. The two systems consisting of an ordinary portland cement (OPC) and a calcium aluminate cement ...

Abstract: Soy methyl ester-polystyrene (SME-PS) is a biodegradable and nontoxic blend of soybean oil and waste polystyrene that can be used as a surface treatment to improve concrete deterioration and rebar corrosion caused by ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the potential use of phase change materials (PCM) in concrete pavements to store heat, which can be used to reduce ice formation and snow accumulation on the surface of the concrete pavement. The ...

Abstract: In this study, a robust variant of genetic programming, namely gene expression programming (GEP) was utilized to build a prediction model for the strength of concrete under triaxial compression loading. The proposed model ...
