Synercrete'18: Interdisciplinary Approaches For Cement-Based Materials And Structural Concrete: Synergizing Expertise And Bridging Scales Of Space And Time. -
This paper investigates various approaches to propagate the effect of epistemic uncertainty in seismic hazard and ground motion selection to seismic performance metrics. Specifically, three approaches with different levels of rigor are presented for…
Early age deformations, when restrained, lead to an increase of cracking risk of the material, especially in the case of high strength materials to which we apply modern high energy mixing techniques which accelerate initial hydration rate. The…

The Tohoku earthquake and associated tsunami in March 2011 caused a severe nuclear accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, where level 7 (International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) – INES scale) meltdown at three reactors occurred. The…

This work presents a direct extension of the multiscale GFEM (MS-GFEM) where damage and fracture mechanisms are now taken into account. Using a pattern-based description of the microscale, the construction of the model falls into two main parts: the…
