Beschreibung
This work presents a comprehensive solution for developing sustainable, energy-efficient road infrastructure through the innovative use of long-afterglow luminescent materials. Addressing the critical global challenges of nighttime road visibility and high energy consumption, it systematically details the material selection, mix design optimization, and microscopic characterization of self-illuminating cement composites. The book uniquely combines laboratory material science with macroscopic functional evaluations, featuring novel driving simulator studies to assess driver visual comfort and full-scale accelerated loading tests to predict long-term service durability. By revealing the hydration mechanisms and optical decay patterns, it provides actionable strategies for balancing mechanical strength with luminous efficiency in varying environmental conditions. This integrated approach facilitates the creation of "smart" roads that enhance traffic safety while supporting carbon neutrality goals. The book is an essential reference for researchers, graduate students, and pavement engineers in the fields of civil engineering, transportation infrastructure, and functional construction materials.
