Multi-scale modelling of concrete structures affected by alkali-silica reaction: Coupling the mesoscopic damage evolution and the macroscopic concrete deterioration

Jean-François Molinari, Aurelia Isabel Cuba Ramos, Mauro Corrado, Roozbeh Rezakhani, Emil Gallyamov

A finite-element approach based on the first-order FE2 homogenisation technique is formulated to analyse the alkali-silica reaction-induced damage in concrete structures, by linking the concrete degradation at the macro-scale to the reaction extent at the ...

Meso-scale modelling of ASR in concrete: effect of viscoelasticity

Jean-François Molinari, Mauro Corrado, Roozbeh Rezakhani, Emil Gallyamov

A meso-scale numerical model for simulating damage in concrete due to ASR is presented. It accounts for the internal structure of concrete including aggregates and mortar. ASR sites are explicitly represented. This model is extended to account for viscoela ...

Numerical analysis of fragmentation in tempered glass with parallel dynamic insertion of cohesive elements

Jean-François Molinari, Marco Vocialta, Mauro Corrado

Tempered glass panes are subjected to high eigenstresses that induce a state of compression along the surfaces and a state of tension in the inner part. Whenever a crack reaches the tensile region, it rapidly propagates and branches in all directions drive ...

Effects of residual stresses on the tensile fatigue behavior of concrete

Jean-François Molinari, Mauro Corrado

The influence of Eigenstresses due to drying shrinkage on the development of residual deformations characterizing the tensile fatigue behavior of concrete is analyzed. During the loading phase the Eigenstresses are locally released around the cracks induci ...
