Project description
 

The project focuses on the multi-scale modelling of the performance of ternary cement-based materials, ans aims to deliver a contribution to the design of cementitious materials with given pre-defined performance. Furthermore, the project will contribute to the further development and promotion of cement-based materials with alternative, CO2-neutral powders. The project consists of the development and validation of a numerical model on different scales.
