Concrete structural failures generally initiate with cracks. Effective control of cracks is the key to ensure the safety and durability of concrete structures. With the development of advanced sensing technology and bionic materials, more attention has been paid to the smart detection and healing for concrete cracks, which provides a new idea to improve the accuracy, efficiency and initiative of concrete crack control. This special issue focuses on the latest research theory and technology of smart detection and healing for concrete cracks.

Potential topics include but are not limited to:

  • Smart sensors and crack detection algorithms for concrete structures
  • Vision-based technologies for concrete crack detection and quantification
  • Microcapsule-based self-healing for concrete cracks
  • Microorganism-based self-healing for concrete cracks
  • Electrochemistry-based self-healing for concrete cracks
  • Mineral-based self-healing for concrete cracks
  • Repairing technologies for concrete after exposure to extreme conditions

Instructions for submission:

Please submit your manuscript before the submission deadline (June 30, 2023) in the submission website:

https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/fsce (this opens in a new tab)

Choose in the list of special issues:

SI: Smart Detection And Healing

All submissions deemed suitable to be sent for peer review will be reviewed by at least three independent reviewers. In order to shorten the publishing period, articles from this Special Issue will appear in a regular issue of the journal as soon as they are accepted, though they will be clearly marked and branded as Special Issue articles.
