Self-Healing Construction Materials: Fundamentals, Monitoring and Large Scale Applications (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783030868826)

Antonios Kanellopoulos graduated with a B.Eng. (Hons) from Cardiff University in 2000 in Civil Engineering and obtained an M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in 2001 and 2004, respectively, from Cardiff University. In 2005, he joined University College London to undertake an M.Sc. in Project and Enterprises Management. His area of expertise is the development of new cement-based composites with unique properties, tailor-made to meet and satisfy the requirements, and challenges of both present and future infrastructure.

Antonios Kanellopoulos research has been published in 15 international peer-reviewed journal articles and in 30 peer-reviewed conference papers. He has also edited and co-edited two book chapters. Furthermore he has reviewed academic papers for more than 10 international journals, and he is also a member of the editorial board of Elsevier's open access journal "Heliyon".

Jose Norambuena-Contreras graduated in 2008 with a B.Eng. (Hons) in Construction Engineering from the Universidad Catica del Maule in Chile and obtained in 2013 a PhD. in Civil Engineering (graduated with Cum Laude honours) from the Universidad de Cantabria in Spain. He developed his PhD thesis in experimental collaboration with the Swiss Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology (EMPA) from the ETH Z?ich in Switzerland. From 2017 to 2019, he was a Postdoctoral researcher on self-healing materials at the University of Nottingham in the United Kingdom. His research focuses on developing self-healing bituminous materials from a vision of waste valorisation to build more sustainable and resilient infrastructures for Civil Engineering.

Jose Norambuena-Contreras has performed high-level research in the field of Civil Engineering Materials (h-index 21). From 2010 to date, he has published 60 Web of Science (WoS) publications in peer-reviewed journals, eight articles in other Journals and more than 35 peer-reviewed article contributions in national and international conferences. He regularly contributes as an external reviewer in more than 15 WoS peer-reviewed journals on Material Science and Engineering. He has led as guest Editor a Special Issue on Novel Bituminous Materials for Sustainable Pavements in the WoS Journal Advanced in Materials Science and Engineering. Additionally, he has been Principal Investigator (PI) or Co-Investigator (COI) on 18 Research Projects supported by several industries and National and International Funding Agencies.
