Fatigue crack growth represents a critical challenge in structural engineering, where repetitive cyclic loading provokes the initiation and propagation of cracks. The field has evolved to include ...

Concrete cracks. That’s a fact. After investigating the cracks and establishing the repair objectives, designing or selecting the best repair material and procedure is fairly straight forward. This ...

GTRI researchers developed the prototype automated pavement crack detection and sealing system shown here. [Credit: Jonathan Holmes] Repaving roads with fresh tarmac is an expensive, time-consuming ...
