Acoustic Emission-based Assessment of Reinforcement Corrosion: Damage Monitoring and Bond Modelling of Corrosion Effects in Reinforced Concrete KU Leuven
Reinforcement corrosion is believed to be the major deterioration phenomenon in reinforced concrete (RC) structures, causing large direct and indirect financial costs. While tools for modelling and design of new RC structures are mature, methods for modelling and assessment of the remaining structural capacity of existing RC structures are much less developed. A prerequisite for the assessment of these structures is the development of ...
