Numerical simulation of hydration and microstructural development in hardening cement-based materials
A computer-based numerical model is presented, with which hydration and microstructural development in Portland cement-based materials can be simulated. The model, called HYMOSTRUC, the acronym for HYdration, morphology and structural development, enables the prediction of hydration curves as a function of the particle size distribution and chemical composition of the cement, the water/cement ratio and the actual reaction temperature. The influence of microstructural development, i. e. the formation of interparticle contacts, on the rate of hydration is modelled explicitly. The background and structure of the simulation model are discussed in Part I of the series. Characteristic model features and the predictive potential of the model as regards the hydration process, hydration temperatures and microstructural development in both bulk cement paste and in the matrix-aggregate interfacial zone will be dealt with in part II.
