This book provides a comprehensive exploration of microwave-based production techniques for prestressed concrete, presenting fundamental principles, experimental studies, and modeling approaches that reveal how electromagnetic energy can be harnessed to engineer concrete with tailored performance. 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.
