Thermal, mechanical and microstructural analysis of concrete containing microencapsulated phase change materials

This paper studies the thermal, mechanical and microstructural aspects of concrete containing different amounts of microencapsulated phase change materials (PCMs). In addition, numerical simulation is carried out to study the potential application of PCM-modified concrete for reduction in summer sur...
