Abstract:Reinforced concrete is one of the most critical composite materials in the modern civil engineering and can improve the tensile resistance of concrete. Its passivation film plays an important role in the durability of concrete and the steel corrosion. But, due to the size limitations, the destruction of micro-scale steel bars has not been well studied. In this work, the reactive molecular dynamics simulation was employed to studying the mechanical properties of the steel and its passivation film. The uniaxial … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
