Characterization of concrete electrical resistivity at varied pore structures, water and chloride contents (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Xiang, N., Wang, Y., & Oleiwi, H. (2018, September). Characterization of concrete electrical resistivity at varied pore structures, water and chloride contents. Presented at 38th Cement and Concrete Science Conference, Coventry, UK

Concrete electrical resistivity has been verified as one of the most significant indicators in the evaluation of steel corrosion in concrete. It is also a most effective parameter in the design and operation of cathodic protection for reinforced conc...

An experimental study of concrete resistivity and the effects of electrode configuration and current frequency on measurement (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Oleiwi, H., Wang, Y., Xiang, N., Augusthus Nelson, L., Chen, X., & Shabalin, I. (2018, July). An experimental study of concrete resistivity and the effects of electrode configuration and current frequency on measurement. Presented at Sixth International Conference on Durability of Concrete Structures, University of Leeds, UK

Electrical resistivity, a measurable parameter of the state of concrete, plays an important role in the assessment of reinforced concrete structures. An experimental study using two-electrode method has been conducted to evaluate the resistivity of P...

Experimental study of cathodic protection for reinforced concrete submerged in saline water (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Oleiwi, H., Wang, Y., Curioni, M., Augusthus Nelson, L., Chen, X., & Shabalin, I. (2017, September). Experimental study of cathodic protection for reinforced concrete submerged in saline water. Presented at 20th International Corrosion Congress & Process Safety Congress (EUROCORR 2017), Prague

Cathodic protection (CP) has been approved in practice to be an effective technique to protect steel reinforcement in concrete from corrosion under severe environmental conditions. Using constant current for CP is the most popular approach in practic... Read More about Experimental study of cathodic protection for reinforced concrete submerged in saline water.

An experimental study of the cathodic polarization of the reinforcement in chloride contaminated concrete (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Oleiwi, H., Wang, Y., Curioni, M., Augusthus Nelson, L., Chen, X., & Shabalin, I. (2017, September). An experimental study of the cathodic polarization of the reinforcement in chloride contaminated concrete. Presented at 20th International Corrosion Congress & Process Safety Congress (EUROCORR 2017), Prague

This paper reports an experimental study on the influence of chloride contamination on the polarization resistance, concrete resistivity, and the potential shift of concrete reinforcement under different cathodic protection (CP) current densities. Re... Read More about An experimental study of the cathodic polarization of the reinforcement in chloride contaminated concrete.
