Developing numerical algorithm and a new program for simulating alkali aggregate reaction in mass concrete
Authors
Abstract:
Nowadays, Alkali Aggregate Reaction is considered as one of the most dangerous weak points of concrete and its occurrence has been widely reported in various structures. In the current study, a program is developed for predicting and examining the effects of mentioned reaction on the three-dimensional analysis of concrete structures such as arch dams. In this regard, a program provided for dam analysis is utilized applying necessary modifications on its flowchart to represent the reaction effects on the analysis procedure. The model utilized for simulating AAR is one of the comprehensive and newest models among the ones presented in various references. The deterioration of elasticity module due to the reaction is also included in the analyses, in addition to modeling concrete expansion with an excess load vector. The analyses conducted for considering the developed program capabilities indicates acceptable results so that its stability and accuracy are considered enough for long term prediction of performance of AAR-affected structures(especially concrete dams) during their service life.

Effect of Alkali Silica Reaction (ASR) in Geopolymer Concrete Final
Alkali silica reaction (ASR) occurs due to chemical reaction between hydroxyl ions in the pore water within the concrete matrix and certain forms of silica. This reaction could lead to strength loss, cracking, volume expansion and potentially failure of the structure. This manuscript reports findings of an experimental investigation of the inter-particle bonding between the reactive aggregates ...
