Aim: The purpose is to introduce the participants in the modelling of material behavior of materials from descriptions of their internal geometry. Special emphasize is laid on porous materials.
| |
Contents: Theoretical content: Composite theory (properties of composite material), Rheology (time dependent behavior of material), Fracture mechanics (influence of damages on material strength), and BET-theory (behavior on surfaces of vapor and moisture). Integration of these disciplines in modelling the behavior of materials, such as creep and relaxation, time dependent strength, creep- and fatigue failure, moisture and temperature induced deformations, and resistence against salt decay and frost attack. Practical content: Important building materials are porous silicate based materials such as concrete, bricks, cellular concrete, and mortar. The theoretical content of the course is exercised on these materials. In this context various laboratory methods are used such as ligth microscopy and scanning electron microscopy, image analysis, microcalometry, and sorption analysis.
