Project Title

Smart Cementations Materials for Intelligent Infrastructure

Abstract

Current global infrastructure is plagued by ageing and deterioration. In the UK alone, for example, approximately half of the £110bn construction output in 2010 was spent on maintenance and refurbishment; a figure that has increased nearly eightfold in 35 years. Demands for an effective structural health monitoring system are therefore more prevalent than ever.

This PhD will focus on the development of damage tolerant and smart cement-based material that is able to self-repair after cracking and perform self-diagnosis with regards to cracking and recovery extents.
