A multiscale model for modulus of elasticity of concrete at high temperatures
AbstractIn this paper, the thermal degradation of modulus of elasticity of concrete is modeled by composite mechanics at three scales of observation: (a) at the level of concrete, (b) at the level of mortar, and (c) the cement paste level. At the latter, the change of volume fractions of the constituents are evaluated based on phase transformations which take place in different temperature ranges. Stoichiometric models are used to determine the volume changes of the constituents. At the mortar and concrete levels, the temperature dependence of fine and coarse aggregates is considered based on available test data. The multiscale chemo-mechanical model can be used to predict the temperature dependence and thermal degradation of the elastic concrete modulus. The model predictions are compared with test data in the literature as well as in-house test data.
