   Abstract : Concrete reinforced with conventional steel is one of the most commonly used building materials, yet it has historically shown disadvantages in terms of durability and vulnerability to corrosion attack. Various remedial methods have been applied to overcome the shortcomings of this building material, such as increasing the concrete cover, which, however, leads to an increased self-weight of the structure.

   Abstract : The ongoing degradation of water quality and streamflow in rivers and streams worldwide is mainly due to human action through global land use change, particularly urbanisation. Population growth and economic development are major drivers of urbanisation, which causes environmental problems such as high water demand and solid waste and wastewater generation. READ MORE
