Predicting the failure of reinforced concrete structures due to rebar corrosion is significant in
maintaining the service life of concrete structures. This paper presents a multi-phase-field …

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 …

Reinforced concrete is used in complex environment, and the damage of concrete protective
layer caused by steel corrosion will seriously reduce the durability of the structure. In order to …

Because of the combined actions of sustained load and corrosive agents, premature steel
corrosion and rapid material deterioration can be extensively observed in the reinforced …

Electrochemical chloride removal (ECR) facilitates the retardation of rebar corrosion and the
extension of service life. In this paper, we present a multi-phase multi-species phase field …

The corrosion of rebars in concrete has been regarded as one of the most predominant
factors for the degradation of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. The accurate predictions …

In this work, a phase-field formulation is proposed to describe ductile fracture in fiber-
reinforced concrete materials. By incorporating an elastoplastic bulk material formulation …

Accurate simulation of the cracking process caused by rust expansion of reinforced concrete
(RC) structures plays an intuitive role in revealing the corrosion-induced failure mechanism …

A novel silicone rubber (SR)-packaged distributed optical fiber sensor (DOFS) tape based
on optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR) technique was developed to effectively …

The internal pore structural characteristics and microbubble distribution features of concrete
have a significant impact on its frost resistance, but their size is relatively small compared to …
