Damage mechanics has often been used to study the mechanical behaviour of concrete structures. Damage models can be used to simulate the quasi-brittle behaviour of cementitious materials, since they are capable of representing cracking under various loading conditions. In this post, we present the i... Read more...
In this post, Reza Gooya (University of Copenhagen), Babak Shafei and Fidel Grandia, blog about a recently-developed coupled pore-scale lattice Boltzmann method with PhreeqcRM (LAMP).
The Challenge
Physical transport in a heterogeneous porous media and non-uniform distributions of chemical and bio... Read more...
This post is intended to illustrate how to calculate the water age in a volume (3D model) or surface (2D model) based in the methodology proposed by Goode D.J. (1996).
The implementation in Comsol Multiphysics can be done in two different ways, namely by means of transient or steady-state simula... Read more...
In this post, Álvaro Sáinz, Marie Curie PhD student at Amphos 21, blogs about a COMSOL interface he has built to simulate conservative transport in porous media.
The interface was tailored to fulfill the needs of iCP, and it is now included as one of the capabilities in iCP v1.0.
An i... Read more...
In this post, Marek Pękala describes a recent application of Comsol at Amphos 21 to study the saturation with water of spent nuclear fuel. This work was financed by a 7FP project of the European Commission to study fast/instant release of safety relevant radionuclides from spent nuclear fuel. Com... Read more...
