Prediction of the physical properties of cement paste at meso‐scale based on level‐set function and XFEM model

Predicting how microstructural transformations scale up to macroscale engineering parameters is crucial for modern concrete design. This paper presents an integrated numerical framework coupling the Level Set Method (LSM) for cement hydration and the mechanical XFEM to evaluate the bulk material properties e.g., elasti...
