Abstract: Understanding the chemomechanical behavior of shotcrete (sprayed concrete) is a prerequisite for better design or failure risk assessment of civil engineering structures. Macroscopic material laws for shotcrete are preferably ...

Abstract: This paper presents the application of the material model presented in the companion paper to the structural analysis of tunnels driven according to the new Austrian tunneling method (NATM). On the one hand, two-dimensional ...

Abstract: In this paper, creep and viscous flow are revisited from the standpoint of constitutive modeling of thermo-chemo-mechanical couplings in early-age concrete. Within the framework of closed reactive porous media, creep is ...
