Chloride Penetration in Coastal Concrete Structures: Field Investigation and Model Development by Weidong Zhuo, Quanzhe Yan, Zhengxian Yang, Shaohong Lin, Kaiqi Lin, Fuqiang He

“…Field measurements of 42 in-service reinforced concrete bridges in coastal environments of Southeast China, covering a wide range of service year, span length, and concrete mixture, were carried out to investigate the chloride penetration. 323 sets of chloride measurement data were collected in total and then analysed to optimize the parameters involved in the common chloride diffusion model derived based on Fick’s second law. A modified chloride diffusion model was then proposed, taking into consideration a range of influencing factors including ambient temperature, relative humidity, stress state, carbon dioxide, chloride binding, and ageing. …”

Numerical simulation of MHD Sakiadis flows of convectively heated thixotropic nanofluids in a porous medium using revised transport laws and Wakif-Buongiorno's model by A. Wakif

“…Due to the particular inability of Fourier's and Fick's laws in the realistic quantification of transfer processes that can occur certainly within a flowing biphasic mixture, on the one hand, and the explanation of the memory relaxation features of such a non-homogenous medium, on the other hand, the present scrutinization intends to propose a representative biphasic flow model to reveal the principal demeanors of convectively heated thixotropic nanofluids during their steady two-dimensional flows in the laminar regime over a stretching planar geometry in a Darcy-Forchheimer porous medium under the magnetic impact of an external electromagnetic device. …”
