Numerical modeling of the behavior of concrete exposed to chloride ions by coupling age and mechanical stresses by Roubila Bendjaiche, Hocine Boudjehm, Zahreddine Nafa, fathe bouteldja

“… This study proposes a quantitative examination of the issue of chloride ion infiltration in concrete under mechanical strain in a hostile setting while considering the influence of time, commonly referred to as the aging effect. The relationship between the diffusion coefficient and age, when subjected to specific levels of uniaxial or biaxial stresses for various W/C ratios, has allowed us to assess the concentration of chloride ions and the time needed for corrosion to begin through the coating layer in three dimensions. …”
