Zhang, Bin (author), Gao, Xu (author), Xu, S. (author), Yang, Xinkui (author), Tian, Qin (author), Liu, Jiayi (author)Microwave heating is an effective method to achieve autonomic crack healing in asphalt mixtures, and the use of microwave-absorbing materials can largely improve this healing efficiency. As a solid waste, coal gangue contains metal oxides, which shows the possibility of microwave heating. In order to further promote the application of coal...journal article 2023

Wan, Z. (author), Zhang, Y. (author), Xu, Y. (author), Šavija, B. (author)Additively manufactured vascular networks have great potential for use in autonomous self-healing of cementitious composites as they potentially allow multiple healing events to take place. However, the existence of a vascular tube wall may impede with the healing efficiency if it does not rupture timely to release the healing agent. The...journal article 2023

Liu, Tong (author), Zhang, Dawei (author), Zhang, Rongjun (author), Wang, Jinke (author), Ma, Lingwei (author), Keil, Patrick (author), Mol, J.M.C. (author), Li, Xiaogang (author)Organic coatings are one of the most used and versatile technologies to mitigate corrosion of metals. However, organic coatings are susceptible to defects and damages that may not be easily detected. If not repaired timely, these defects may develop into major coating failures due to corrosion occurring in the damaged region, thereby limiting...journal article 2023

Gao, Jian (author), Jin, Peng (author), Zhang, Yuze (author), Dong, H. (author), Wang, Ruixing (author)Due to low activity or long mineralization time, traditional mineral agents for self-healing concrete generally need a long time to achieve a desired repair efficiency. Inspired by epoxy resin AB glue which can consolidate in a short time when mixing the two components together, a novel type of fast-responsive capsules based on two soluble...journal article 2022

He, S. (author), Zhang, Shizhe (author), Lukovic, M. (author), Schlangen, E. (author)Strain hardening cementitious composite (SHCC) is a special class of ultra-ductile material which has autogenous self-healing capability due to its intrinsic tight crack widths. To further improve its healing ability, healing agent (HA) can be incorporated in SHCC, enabling it also the autonomous self-healing mechanism. In this study, the...journal article 2022

Wan, Z. (author), Xu, Y. (author), Zhang, Y. (author), He, S. (author), Šavija, B. (author)Cracking is one of the main causes for deterioration of concrete structures. Self-healing concrete with 3D-printed vascular networks has excellent potential for autonomous self-healing. This approach is scarcely investigated: no studies have been devoted to the influence of printing parameters on the properties of vascular based self-healing...journal article 2022

(author)Rejuvenator encapsulation technique showed great potential for extrinsic asphalt pavement damage healing. Once the capsules are embedded within asphalt pavement, the healing is activated on-demand via progressing microcrack. When the microcrack encounters the capsule, the fracture energy at the tip opens the capsule and releases the...journal article 2021

Zhang, Shasha (author), van Dijk, N.H. (author), van der Zwaag, S. (author)Self-healing metals possess the capability to autonomously repair structural damage during service. While self-healing concepts remain challenging to be realized in metals and metallic systems due to the small atomic volume of the mobile atoms, the slow diffusion unless at high temperatures and the strong isotropic metallic bonds, the...review 2020
