Cement-based sensors with carbon fibers and carbon nanotubes for piezoresistive sensing

TL;DR: In this paper, two types of cement-based sensors, one with carbon fibers alone and the other carrying a hybrid of both fibers and nanotubes, were considered and their ability to sense an applied compressive load through a measureable change in resistivity was investigated.

Self sensing carbon nanotube (CNT) and nanofiber (CNF) cementitious composites for real time damage assessment in smart structures

TL;DR: In this paper, the self sensing properties of cementitious composites reinforced with well dispersed carbon nanotubes and carbon nanofibers were investigated and compared with resistivity results of nanocomposites fabricated with “as received” nanoscale fibers at the same loading.

Cement reinforced with short carbon fibers: a multifunctional material

TL;DR: In this article, a review of carbon-matrix composites containing short carbon fibers is presented, which exhibit attractive tensile and flexural properties, low drying shrinkage, high specific heat, low thermal conductivity, high electrical conductivity and high corrosion resistance and weak thermoelectric behavior.

The conduction of electricity through concrete

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the relationship between mix proportions, electrical properties of the constituents of concrete and the over-all electrical resistivity for concrete and proposed an electrical model for conduction of electricity through the heterogeneous medium of concrete.

Elements of materials science and engineering

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an overview of some of the most common phases in the chemical composition of Equilibrated Phases, including phase distribution, phase distribution distribution (precipitates), phase distribution (Eutectoid Decomposition), phase equilibria, and phase scaling.

Electrical resistivity measurements of Portland cement based materials

TL;DR: The electrical resistivities of four different cements have been found to exhibit very different age dependencies and these differences cannot be readily explained in terms of their compositions and water/cement ratios.

Electrically conductive concrete
