Layered model of aging concrete. General concept and one-dimensional applications

Andrzej Truty, Jan Szarliński and Krzysztof Podleś

Abstract

A novel approach to modeling concrete behavior at the stage of its maturing is presented in this paper. This approach assumes that at any point in the structure, concrete is composed of a set of layers that are activated in time layer by layer, based on amount of released heat that is produced during process of the concrete

Key Words

concrete; aging; constitutive modeling
