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…
Fracture of bio-cemented sands
C. Konstantinou, E. Martínez-Pañeda, G. Biscontin +1
Bio-chemical reactions enable the production of biomimetic materials such as sandstones. In the present study, microbiologically-induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) is u…
Biomass dust explosions: CFD simulations and venting experiments in a 1 m silo
A. Islas, A. Rodríguez-Fernández, C. Betegón +2
This study presents CFD simulations of biomass dust explosions in a newly developed experimental 1 m silo apparatus with variable venting, designed and fabricated to operate si…
Analysis of hydrogen diffusion in the three stage electro-permeation test
A. Raina, V. S. Deshpande, E. Martínez-Pañeda +1
The presence of hydrogen traps within a metallic alloy influences the rate of hydrogen diffusion. The electro-permeation (EP) test can be used to assess this: the permeation of hyd…
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…
Corrosion rates under charge-conservation conditions
Tim Hageman, Carmen Andrade, Emilio Martínez-Pañeda
Laboratory and numerical corrosion experiments impose an electric potential on the metal surface, differing from natural corrosion conditions, where corrosion typically occurs in t…
