Introduction
摘要
The concrete is probably the most used civil construction material in the modern world. Developing countries such as China, India and Brazil stand out as the largest consumers of this material in the execution of buildings and infrastructure. The durability of concrete structures must be guaranteed in order to prevent expensive maintenance or even failure of those structures (Martin et al. in Modelling of concrete structures affected by internal swelling reactions: couplings between transfer properties, alkali leachning and expansion.
