      Mohsen, Mohamed O.; Al Ansari, Mohamed S.; Taha, Ramzi; Al Nuaim, Nasser; Abu Taqa, Ala ( Hindawi Limited , 2019 , Article)
      Recently, remarkable types of carbon nanofilaments called carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have raised the interest of many concrete and cementitious composite researchers due to their significant mechanical, electrical, thermal, ...
    • Effectiveness of FRCM system in strengthening reinforced concrete beams 

      Ebead, Usama A.; Shrestha, Kshitij C.; Afzal, Muhammad S.; El Refai, Ahmed; Nanni, Antonio ( International Committee of the SCMT conferences , 2016 , Conference Paper)
      In this paper, experimental work has been reported to investigate the efficiency of fiber-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) in enhancing the flexural capacity and deformational characteristics of reinforced concrete ...
    • Strength optimisation of mortar with CNTs and nanoclays 

      Bani-Hani, Khaldoon A.; Irshidat, Mohammad R.; Abu Al-Rub, Rashid K.; Al-Nuaimi, Nasser A.; Talleh, Ala'a T. ( Thomas Telford Services Ltd , 2016 , Article)
      This study explores the use of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and nanoclays in cement mortars. The paper presents modelling and optimisation of the compressive and flexural strengths of cement mortars containing CNTs and the ...
