Relevance of a mesoscopic modeling for the coupling between creep and damage in concrete

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Jacqueline Saliba and collaborators from the (GeM), UMR-CNRS, rue la Nou00eb, Nantes, France have published the research work: Relevance of a mesoscopic modeling for the coupling between creep and damage in concrete, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
• what: This work has allowed highlighting the nucleation of micro-cracks in the concrete microstructure under a sustained load which contribute to the weakness of concrete observed in a recent work (Saliba et_al 2012).
• how: The model is implemented in the finite element code Cast3M. In this study it is considered that the matrix governs . . .
