First, the tire-pavement FEM model with piezoresistive units was established considering the viscoelasticity of the pavement materials. Subsequently, the mechanical responses of the piezoresistive units under various tire and environmental loads were converted into electrical resistance outputs via the mechanical–electrical model. Finally, BP was trained using simulated data to address challenges associated with the back-calculation of tire loads. Results indicate that the electrical resistance of the piezoresistive unit in complete contact with the tire illustrates an overall rising trend as tire load increases, which is attributed to changes in contact stress. However, the adjacent piezoresistive units display an opposite trend, which can be used to determine the lateral position of the tires. Additionally, electrical resistance shows a non-linear decrease with increasing temperature. The single-hidden-layer BP with 13 neurons was validated to demonstrate higher accuracy compared to multi-hidden-layer BP. Moreover, the Genetic algorithm-optimized single-hidden-layer BP (GA-S-BP) shows further improved performance, achieving an MSE of 1.91 and an MAPE of 8.5%, and a low probability of underestimating tire loads. The GA-S-BP designed in this study can effectively predict tire loads within permissible levels to realize the function of piezoresistive pavement.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":691,"journal":{"name":"Materials and Structures","volume":"58 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1617/s11527-025-02588-y.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143184839","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper proposes the use of a combination of methylene blue and density measurements to obtain reliable assessment of the quality of calcination of kaolinite-rich clays. Seven different clays calcined within the temperature range of 400 °C to 1000 °C were studied using these techniques and the results were compared with traditional methods. The results clearly demonstrate that the degree of conversion of kaolinite to metakaolin can be effectively obtained by measuring the residual kaolinite-content using the methylene blue test. A 50% reduction in the methylene blue value indicates the presence of under-calcined clay. Additionally, the formation of the spinel phase, which is the first unreactive product that forms upon over-calcination, can be identified by density measurements, as it is associated with higher density values. The proposed test methods can be implemented at clay-calcination units without the need for expensive equipment and highly-skilled technicians. The methods are seen to be sufficiently quick and reliable for a continuous monitoring of the calcination quality at short intervals.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":691,"journal":{"name":"Materials and Structures","volume":"58 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143184772","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the use of more sustainable alternatives and their effect on key engineering properties remain largely unexplored, while the adoption of different testing protocols for the characterisation of electrical/self-sensing properties can lead to different results, thus questioning their reliability, even for existing smart composites. This paper investigates systematically the effect of recycled carbon fibres and graphite powder on the mechanical, electrical, transport properties and piezoresistive performance of cementitious mortars. Virgin carbon fibres, at dosages equivalent to those of recycled fibres, were also examined to establish a performance benchmark. Fibre content ranged from 0.05% to 1% vol., while graphite powder was added as sand replacement at contents varying from 0.3% to 3% vol. The effect of existing testing protocols and electrode layout on the piezoresistive performance was also examined, and the associated limitations and challenges are discussed in detail. The results demonstrate the potential of recycled carbon fibres as a cost-effective alternative in smart applications, without compromising electrical and piezoresistive performance. The use of 0.25%vol. of recycled or virgin carbon fibres was found to provide the desirable synergy between structural performance, cost and self-sensing properties, yielding a 50–60% increase in flexural strength, and good piezoresistivity with a gauge factor of 90–110. In contrast, the use of graphite powder resulted in composites with poor self-sensing ability even at the highest content examined (3%vol.), also accompanied by a reduction in compressive strength up to 33%.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":691,"journal":{"name":"Materials and Structures","volume":"58 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1617/s11527-025-02590-4.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143108230","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While beneficial, SCMs alter the pore structure and pore solution chemistry, necessitating advanced methods to evaluate carbonation progression. Traditional techniques, such as splitting specimens and using pH indicators like phenolphthalein to detect changes in alkalinity, are destructive and primarily designed for ordinary Portland cement (OPC), limiting their effectiveness for SCM-incorporated systems. This paper presents the development of a novel lab-scale carbonation monitoring method based on conductivity measurements in the cementitious matrix. The proposed method examines how carbonation impacts the electrical conductivity of concrete, enabling in-situ monitoring of carbonation propagation in mortar specimens using mini-sensors embedded within the material. These mini-sensors consist of 10 sets of stainless steel 4-point Winner electrodes, spaced 2.54 mm apart, ensuring accurate conductivity measurements. By strategically placing these mini-sensors within the cementitious matrix, real-time measurements can be carried out, allowing for continuous monitoring of carbonation progression. The method provides new insights into how carbonation impacts the electrical properties of concrete, revealing dynamic changes such as a distinct peaking behavior in conductivity at the reactive carbonation front. This feature enables identification of partial carbonation front, which traditional colorimetric methods cannot detect. The results validate the method's effectiveness for OPC system and indicate its applicability when SCMs are incorporated.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":691,"journal":{"name":"Materials and Structures","volume":"58 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1617/s11527-025-02576-2.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143108235","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigates the influence of specimen thickness on the uniaxial tensile behaviour of TRC panels, using panels of varying thicknesses—10, 20, and 40 mm, reinforced with coated E-glass textiles. Two sets of TRC panels were analysed: (i) panels with a constant reinforcement ratio and (ii) panels with the same number of textile layers. The displacement and cracking behaviour including crack patterns, spacing, and openings at different strain levels, were assessed using axial extensometers and 2D Digital Image Correlation. The findings reveal a reduction in the first-crack stress with increasing panel thickness, which is consistent with the Weibull model. Additionally, a decrease in ultimate stress and textile efficiency is observed in larger panels though the reinforcement ratio is constant. Such reduction is attributed to a shift in failure mechanisms, from textile fracture to extensive debonding in some of the specimens, as the number of reinforcement layers increases, possibly due to the increase in defects with larger interface (bond) area. Thinner panels exhibit higher crack density, reduced crack spacing, and finer crack widths, at comparable strain levels. For the same number of layers, thicker panels experience wider cracks at a given nominal strain; longer yarn lengths that bridge the cracks are mobilised leading to a Weibull-type size effect, which reduces the load-carrying capacity of the textiles.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":691,"journal":{"name":"Materials and Structures","volume":"58 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143108236","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this experimental study, several durability-related properties were assessed, with the aim of investigating the possible use of RAP as partial or total replacement of natural aggregates for reinforced concrete applications. In particular, concretes were obtained with increasing RAP contents (from reference mixtures with natural aggregate only, to complete substitution with RAP aggregate), two different cement types (Portland-limestone and pozzolanic), and two water/cement ratios (0.45 and 0.65), representative of two exposure classes for chloride and carbonation induced corrosion. Water sorptivity through capillary suction and water absorption were investigated, together with the resistance to the penetration of carbonation, both under accelerated and natural exposure, and the resistance to the penetration of chlorides, under natural diffusion. Relationships between physical and mechanical properties, such as total open porosity and compressive strength, and durability-related properties were also investigated. Results showed that sorptivity experienced a neat decrease for increasing RAP contents, due to the hydrophobic nature of RAP aggregate, while water absorption was less affected. Resistance to the penetration of carbonation and chlorides were both more clearly affected by other mix design variables, such as w/c ratio and cement type, rather than RAP content.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":691,"journal":{"name":"Materials and Structures","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1617/s11527-025-02582-4.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143109930","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
