This paper provides a comprehensive overview of existing experimental and modelling
approaches to determine effective diffusion coefficients of water saturated ordinary Portland …

This article reviews the general features of the multiscale structures in particle–fluid systems
and the characterization, modeling, and simulation methods for these systems. The …

This paper develops a novel lattice diffusive model to quantitatively study the chloride
diffusion coefficient in unsaturated cementitious materials, in which the pore voxels are …

Magnesium oxysulfate (MOS) cement is a typical eco-friendly cementitious material, which
presents excellent performances. In this work, a novel multiscale modeling strategy is …

Reinforced concrete (RC) structures may suffer from serious durability problems during long-
term service. To investigate the deterioration of RC structures subjected to the dual attacks of …

In circumstances with wastewater and seawater, the behavior of multi-ions including
calcium, chloride and others in concrete attracts attention. The present study investigated the …

Understanding the transport mechanisms within unsaturated porous media is essential to
the durability problems associated with cement-based materials. However, the involvement …

CO 2 treatment of cementitious materials has been suggested as a potential approach to
reduce carbon footprint and improve material properties. To gain a deep understanding of …

The interfacial transition zone (ITZ), located near aggregates, is characterized by low cement
content and high porosity and is the weak link in cement-based materials. Considering the …

Chloride-induced corrosion poses a significant challenge to the long-term sustainability of
concrete structures exposed to seawater. This study proposed a multi-species reactive …
