Mechanical constitutive relationship and microstructure evolution of high ductility low shrinkage concrete under coupled actions of freeze-thaw and carbonation
Key Points
Mechanical constitutive relationships change significantly under freeze-thaw and carbonation effects, impacting durability.
Microstructure evolution observed includes changes to pore structure and strength in high ductility concrete.
Assessment using mechanical testing and microstructural analysis reveals notable resilience to environmental factors.
Findings suggest that enhancing microstructure can improve concrete's longevity in harsh conditions.
