Precipitation of corrosion products in macroscopic voids at the steel-concrete interface -- observations, mechanisms and research needs
Shishir Mundra, Emanuele Rossi, Luka Malenica +2
Macroscopic voids at the steel-concrete interface and their degree of saturation with an aqueous electrolyte are known to play an important role in the corrosion of steel in reinfo…
Towards improved understanding of spontaneous imbibition into dry porous media using pore-scale direct numerical simulations
Luka Malenica, Zhidong Zhang, Ueli Angst
Traditional approaches to mathematically describe spontaneous imbibition are usually based on either macro-scale models, such as Richards equation, or simplified pore-scale models,…
Microscale chemical imaging to characterize and quantify corrosion processes at the metal-electrolyte interface
Cristhiana C. Albert, Shishir Mundra, Dario Ferreira Sanchez +5
We introduce an experimental setup to chemically image corrosion processes at metal-electrolyte interfaces under stagnant, confined conditions relevant in a wide range of situation…
Durability of MgO/hydromagnesite mortars -- Resistance to chlorides and corrosion
Fabio Enrico Furcas, Alexander German, Frank Winnefeld +2
The durability of MgO/hydromagnesite mortars was studied with respect to their corrosion performance and resistance to chloride attack and moisture. MgO/hydromagnesite pastes were…
The influence of silicon on the formation and transformation of corrosion products
Fabio E. Furcas, Shishir Mundra, Barbara Lothenbach +3
Accurate model predictions of corrosion-driven damage in reinforced concrete structures necessitate a comprehensive understanding of the rate of corrosion product formation. Here,…
