Summary Energy harvesting from pavements has been a topic of extensive research in the recent past. This domain has attracted not only the research community but also the industry and governmental authorities. The various sources exploited for energy harvesting from pavements and roadways are solar radiation, mechanical energy dissipated due to moving vehicles and pedestrians, geothermal energy, rainwater, and wind. This article presents an exhaustive and updated review of all potential means of energy harvesting from these sources. Following the introductory section, the article sequentially covers the energy harvesting methods and their research progress, materials, development of practical systems, commercial status, comparison of technologies, challenges, and concluding remarks. This study reveals that there is wide scope for further research and feasibility studies, which could lead to a wide‐spread implementation of the various technologies for energy harvesting from pavements and roads.

This paper presents a numerical procedure for evaluating the thermo-mechanical response of Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) beams exposed to fire. The numerical model is based on a macroscopic finite element formulation and utilizes sectional moment-curvature relations to trace the response of UHPC beams from the linear elastic stage to collapse under combined effects of fire and structural loading. Fire-induced spalling, temperature-dependent properties of concrete and steel reinforcement, and realistic failure criteria are incorporated into the analysis. Specifically, an advanced analysis approach for evaluating spalling is incorporated in the model by considering the stresses arising from the combined effects of thermal gradients, structural loading, and pore pressure generated in the concrete section. Comparisons of the predictions from the model with data from fire resistance experiments show a good correlation, indicating the proposed model can reliably predict the thermo-mechanical response, including the extent of spalling in UHPC beams subjected to fire exposure. The applicability of the model for undertaking advanced analysis is shown by conducting a case study to illustrate the influence of load level and fire scenario on the fire response of the UHPC beams.
