This book describes the development of an innovative solution for
electrified roadway pavements based on engineered cementitious
composites, which are exhibiting an extreme tensile strain capacity
that is much higher than conventional concrete. This enables the
pavement to work without steel reinforcement and to embed a dynamic
wireless power transfer technology for charging electric vehicles.
At first, the book presents a modified performance-driven design
approach to improve the composites to achieve the optimum pavement
design in terms of functional and structural performance. It shows
that the modified composites can be used to fulfil the safety and
comfort factors without neglecting the characteristics of
conventional ones. Further, 3D finite element and fluid dynamics
models are used to analyse the pavement properties. The validated
models can predict the functional performance, including skid
resistance, surface water drainage, and noise. In the remaining
part of the thesis, an environmentally-friendly photocatalytic
function for pavement made of engineered cementitious composites is
investigated. In turn, a multi-criteria design analysis is proposed
to identify the optimum functional performance of the pavements.
All in all, this book reports on a comprehensive approach to
design, analyse and optimize engineered cementitious composites for
electrified road pavement application. A special emphasis is given
on applications in Singapore and other tropical megacities.
