RAAC panels can suddenly collapse before any warning of corrosion-induced surface cracking
E. Korec, P. Grassl, M. Jirasek +2
The collapse of reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (RAAC) panels has attracted considerable public and academic interest. As detailed experimental data are not yet available an…
Unravelling the interplay between steel rebar corrosion rate and corrosion-induced cracking of reinforced concrete
E. Korec, M. Jirasek, H. S. Wong +1
Accelerated impressed current testing is the most common experimental method for assessing the susceptibility to corrosion-induced cracking, the most prominent challenge to the dur…
Predicting the impact of water transport on carbonation-induced corrosion in variably saturated reinforced concrete
E. Korec, L. Mingazzi, F. Freddi +1
A modelling framework for predicting carbonation-induced corrosion in reinforced concrete is presented. The framework constituents include a new model for water transport in cracke…
Phase-field chemo-mechanical modelling of corrosion-induced cracking in reinforced concrete subjected to non-uniform chloride-induced corrosion
E. Korec, M. Jirasek, H. S. Wong +1
A model for corrosion-induced cracking of reinforced concrete subjected to non-uniform chloride-induced corrosion is presented. The gradual corrosion initiation of the steel surfac…
A phase-field chemo-mechanical model for corrosion-induced cracking in reinforced concrete
E. Korec, M. Jirasek, H. S. Wong +1
We present a new mechanistic framework for corrosion-induced cracking in reinforced concrete that resolves the underlying chemo-mechanical processes. The framework combines, for th…
