This paper presents the findings of an investigation on early-age thermal behavior of
concrete segmental box girders using finite element (FE) analysis. A FE segmental box …

This paper introduces a 1-D finite difference model for analyzing the temperature distribution
throughout the hardening phase in concrete structures. The model accounts for the degree …

This article presents the assessment of early-age cracking risk in a mass concrete footing
which is cast under different construction conditions. A finite element (FE) model was …

Concrete structures are prone to cracking due to non-uniform temperature distribution
caused by the heat released during cement hydration. Accurate prediction of temperature …

This paper proposes a new approach for determining the activation energy of concrete,
which is based on the combination of particle swarm optimization (PSO) and adiabatic …
