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 surface …

Non-uniform corrosion of rebar in reinforced concrete will lead to concrete cover cracking,
thus significantly reducing the durability of structures. A 2D mesoscale phase field model …

This paper presented the corrosion-induced moment redistributions in RC structures under
service loads. To do so, the flexural stiffness calculation formulas were proposed for …

Aimed to study the characteristics of corrosion-induced cracks in concrete contained
transverse cracks, an improved CDM-XFEM is proposed to calculate the process of …

Chloride-induced corrosion of steel in reinforced concrete (RC) exhibits complicated
mechanisms such as chloride diffusion, oxygen diffusion, electrochemical polarization …

Reinforcement corrosion is identified as a major cause of premature deterioration of
reinforced concrete (RC) structures and infrastructure. Coupling effects of seismic actions …

Chloride-induced corrosion results in the deterioration of concrete structures. To resolve this
issue, two types of synthetic layered double hydroxides (LDHs) 2D nanoflakes based on …

Corrosion is one of the most serious durability concerns for steel reinforced structures
exposed to coastal and offshore environments. In engineering practice, the corrosion …

Many experimental and numerical studies have been conducted to explain chloride ion
penetration in concrete including aggregates, ITZ and mortar. To my best knowledge, there …

This work reveals influence of the stress state of steel bars on the critical chloride content for
depassivation in a simulated concrete pore solution (SCPS). The passivation behavior of …
