C-S-H gel densification: the impact of the nanoscale on self desiccation and sorption isotherms
Enrico Masoero, Gianluca Cusatis, Giovanni Di Luzio
The relationship between humidity and water content in a hydrating cement paste is largely controlled by the nanostructure of the C-S-H gel. Current hydration models do not describ…
Capillary stress and structural relaxation in moist granular materials
Tingtao Zhou, Katerina Ioannidou, Enrico Masoero +3
We propose a theoretical framework to calculate capillary stresses in complex mesoporous materials, such as moist sand, nanoporous hydrates, and drying colloidal films. Molecular s…
Progressive Collapse Mechanisms of Brittle and Ductile Framed Structures
Enrico Masoero, Falk K. Wittel, Hans J. Herrmann +1
In this paper, we study the progressive collapse of 3D framed structures made of reinforced concrete after the sudden loss of a column. The structures are represented by elasto-pla…
