Self-sensing concrete: from resistance-based sensing to capacitance-based sensing [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Smart and Nano Materials, 2020
Self-sensing uses the cement-based material without sensor incorporation to sense itself. This paper reviews self-sensing cement-based materials, with coverage of the well-studied resistance-based sensing as well as the less-studied capacitance-based sensing. This review is the first that covers capacitance-based self-sensing. Capacitance-based sensing
