Through a multidisciplinary lens that integrates electromagnetics, dielectric characterization, heat and mass transfer, and composite material science, the chapters examine microwave volumetric heating, accelerated curing methods—including those incorporating industrial byproducts—and the resulting mechanical, thermal, and microstructural effects. This book highlights microwave curing as a promising and rapidly advancing technology for enhancing the efficiency and quality of prestressed concrete manufacturing.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\"\u003eNatt Makul, Ph.D., is affiliated with the Civil Engineering Technology department at Phranakhon Rajabhat University in Bangkok, Thailand. His work bridges thermal science and sustainable construction, focusing on microwave‑accelerated curing of cementitious materials, valorizing industrial by‑products, and linking microstructure with performance in advanced concretes. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11 January 2027\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer Nature Switzerland\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9783032258007\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e442\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Springer Nature Switzerland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47185137795212,"sku":"9783032258007","price":179.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783032258007.jpg?v=1781057283","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783032258007","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
