摘要
In massive hardening concrete elements, early age thermal cracking due to the heat of hydration might occur. At Ghent University, a simulation procedure is developed, based on the degree of hydration as a fundamental parameter. This parameter is related with the microstructural development during cement hydration. Accurate finite element simulations are obtained for the problem of early age thermal cracking, applying a staggered analysis. The time dependent material behaviour is implemented by means of a Kelvin chain. The cracking behaviour is implemented using a smeared cracking approach with non-linear softening behaviour. The results of the model are verified experimentally. (C) 2002 Civil-Comp Ltd. and Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
