Electronic Properties of Passive Films on Carbon Steel Rebar in Simulated Concrete Pore Solutions

Creator:

Williamson, Jon W.

Abstract:

In the highly alkaline environment of concrete, carbon steel rebar is protected against corrosion by a passive oxide/oxyhydroxide film. Understanding the characteristics of this passive film, and how it depassivates, is the key for mitigating problems associated with steel corrosion in concrete. Although a large number of electrochemical and analytical...

Chemical Solution Deposition and in-situ Structural Characterization of Pb-free, Bi-based, Piezoelectric Thin Films

Creator:

Fox, Austin J.

Abstract:

This work explores the electric field induced strain mechanisms in environmentally benign Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 (BNT) based piezoelectric thin films. Although BNT-based materials show promise as replacements for toxic Pb-based piezoelectrics, the displacement mechanisms are not consistent between thin films and bulk materials, and the differences have yet to be well understood....

Investigation of Drilled Shafts under Axial, Lateral, and Torsional Loading

Creator:

Li, Qiang

Abstract:

Drilled shaft foundations provide significant geotechnical resistance for support of structures, such as highway bridges, traffic sign, and signal pole structures, and are used widely to meet their structural foundation requirements. The amount of steel reinforcement in drilled shaft foundations has increased over the past several decades to account for...
