...Y. Sun Purpose In recent years, there has been growing interest in the use of stainless steel (SS) in reinforced concrete (RC) structures due to its distinctive corrosion resistance and excellent mechanical properties. To ensure effective synergy between SS and concrete, it is necessary to develop...

...Jiang Hu Purpose The multi-scale numerical simulation method, able to represent the complexity of the random structures and capture phase degradation, is an effective way to investigate the long-term behavior of concrete in service and bridges the gap between research on the material...

...Vratislav Kafka; David Vokoun The general concept of mesomechanical constitutive modeling developed by the first author is applied to the description of inelastic mechanical behavior of concrete under very complex loading in three orthogonal directions. Concrete is modeled as an isotropic...
