Probabilistic Durability Analysis of Cementitious Materials under External Sulfate Attack

A probabilistic framework is developed in this dissertation for numerical simulation of the degradation of cementitious materials under external sulfate attack. The model combines detailed approaches for four essential components of degradation: (i) diffusion of ions, (ii) chemical reactions of the...
