Experimental Study of Thermal and Mechanical Properties of Hydrated Lime Asphalt Concrete and Numerical Modelling of Constructed Pavement Performance (2023)
Thesis
Alashaibi, A. (2023). Experimental Study of Thermal and Mechanical Properties of Hydrated Lime Asphalt Concrete and Numerical Modelling of Constructed Pavement Performance. (Thesis). University of Salford

The flexible pavement suffers primarily from three types of distress: fatigue cracking, thermal cracking, and permanent deformation. Thermal effects from climate are a significant in distress and early aging of pavements, and particularly in extreme...

Legacy soil contamination by crude oil from the First Gulf War : geochemical characteristics, spatial pattern and environmental risk (2020)
Thesis
Almebayedh, H. Legacy soil contamination by crude oil from the First Gulf War : geochemical characteristics, spatial pattern and environmental risk. (Thesis). University of Salford

The first Gulf War resulted in large-scale oil spills in Kuwait. Selection of appropriate soil remediation methods needs to be informed by accurate soil characterization and this knowledge is currently lacking. The aim of this PhD study was to obtain...

Using cathodic protection to control corrosion of reinforced concrete structures
Thesis
Oleiwi, H. (in press). Using cathodic protection to control corrosion of reinforced concrete structures. (Thesis). University of Salford

Cathodic protection (CP) has been increasingly used on reinforced concrete structures to protect steel reinforcement from corrosion. However, due to the complexity of environmental conditions, the specifications in national and international standard...

An experimental study of high-performance concrete using metakaolin additive and polymer admixture
Thesis
Al Menhosh, A. (in press). An experimental study of high-performance concrete using metakaolin additive and polymer admixture. (Thesis). University of Salford

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the use of supplementary cementing materials and polymers to produce high-performance concrete. Utilizing a mineral substance as cement replacement in concrete has less environmental pollution and...
