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

Peng, Q. (author), Gorter, W.S. (author), Vermolen, F.J. (author)Plastic (permanent) deformations were earlier, modeled by a phenomenological model in Peng and Vermolen (Biomech Model Mechanobiol 19(6):2525–2551, 2020). In this manusctipt, we consider a more physics-based formulation that is based on morphoelasticity. We firstly introduce the morphoelasticity approach and investigate the impact of various...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)This paper presents a low-loss load-insensitive Doherty power amplifier (DPA) technique. The proposed DPA is insensitive to ohmic load variation by adjusting its supply voltages and input drive of the main and peaking stages in a mirrored approach. Moreover, a low-loss tunable matching network (TMN) is employed to cancel out any reactive part of...conference paper 2022

Xu, S. (author), Liu, X. (author), Tabakovic, A. (author), Schlangen, E. (author)Microwave heating has been shown to be an effective method of heating asphalt concrete and in turn healing the damage. As such, microwave heating holds great potential in rapid (1–3 min) and effective damage healing, resulting in improvement in the service life, safety, and sustainability of asphalt pavement. This study focused on the microwave...journal article 2021
