This book delves into the development of an innovative solution for electrified roadway pavements, leveraging engineered cementitious composites that exhibit an exceptional tensile strain capacity, significantly surpassing conventional concrete. By eliminating the need for steel reinforcement, this pavement enables the integration of dynamic wireless power transfer technology for the charging of electric vehicles.
The book begins by presenting a modified performance-driven design approach aimed at enhancing the composites to achieve optimal pavement design in terms of functional and structural performance. It demonstrates that the modified composites can fulfill safety and comfort requirements while maintaining the characteristics of conventional materials. Furthermore, 3D finite element and fluid dynamics models are employed to analyze pavement properties, providing accurate predictions of functional performance, including skid resistance, surface water drainage, and noise.
In the subsequent chapters, the thesis explores the incorporation of an environmentally-friendly photocatalytic function into pavement made of engineered cementitious composites. A multi-criteria design analysis is proposed to identify the optimum functional performance of these pavements. Throughout the book, a comprehensive approach to design, analysis, and optimization of engineered cementitious composites for electrified road pavement applications is presented, with a particular focus on their applications in Singapore and other tropical megacities.
