Image-Based vs. Parametric Modelling of Concrete Meso-Structures

Abstract: Damage initiation and crack propagation in concrete are associated with localisation of energy dissipation by the concrete meso-structure. Meso-scale models are, therefore, required for realistic analysis of concrete non-linear behaviour. Such models are constructed either from X-ray Computed Tomography images (image-based modelling) or by in silico meso-structure generation (parametric modelling), while both approaches are widely used and their advantages and disadvantages are recognised, little work is done … Show more

“…Specifically, this technique enables the quantification of diffusion tortuosity using high-resolution microtomographic images of cement-based materials (Promentilla et al 2009). This technology has already been extensively used for evaluating the transport properties in cement-based concrete, seen in Tan et al (2023), andWang et al (2022a). Provis et al (2012) pioneered to simulate and calculate the diffusion tortuosity of alkali-activated GGBFS and FA mixtures.…”

“…Nevertheless, synthetically generated meso-structures remain the main tool for analysis of meso-structural effects on macroscopic behaviour. The comparison of meso-scale concrete models with realistic and synthetic aggregate distribution can be found in Wang et al [57].…”

“…However, their success crucially depends on accurate modeling of the mesoscale geometry. Hence the topology of the porous material is usually either constructed either from X-ray computed tomography (XCT) (image-based modelling) or by in silico meso-structure generation (parametric modelling) [ 8 ].…”
