TL;DR: In this article, the influence of entrained air content on the rate of water absorption, the degree of saturation, and the relationship between the saturation level and freeze-thaw damage was examined.

TL;DR: In this article, a large-area sensing skin for damage detection in concrete structures is proposed, consisting of a thin layer of electrically conductive copper paint that is applied to the surface of the concrete.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of temperature on the corrosion rate of steel corrosion in concrete is investigated through simulated polarization resistance experiments, which are based on the numerical solution of the Laplace's equation with predefined boundary conditions of the problem and have been designed to establish independent correlations among corrosion rate, temperature, kinetic parameters, concrete resistivity and limiting current density.

TL;DR: In this article, a series of wetting and drying tests were performed on concrete using different aqueous solutions containing deicing salts, and it was found that the rate of fluid absorption was generally lower for aqueously solutions containing DEicing salts than it was for water.

TL;DR: In this paper, electrical resistance tomography (ERT) was used to detect the moisture movement and to show approximately the shape and position of the water front even if the flow is non-uniform.
