• Alkali metal distribution in composite cement pastes and its relation to accelerated ASR tests 

      Hemstad, Petter; Zuschlag, Pamela; Kjellemyr, Petter; Lindgård, Jan; Kjellsen, Knut O.; Rønning, Terje; Justnes, Harald; Maciej, Zajac; Haha, Mohsen Ben; Weerdt, Klaartje de (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Accelerated testing of alkali silica reaction (ASR) in concrete at elevated temperatures of 38 and 60 °C has an unknown impact on the alkali metal distribution in the cement paste. This paper investigates how the alkali ...
    • Structure, hydration, and chloride ingress in C-S-H: Insight from DFT calculations 

      Svenum, Ingeborg-Helene; Ringdalen, Inga Gudem; Bleken, Francesca Lønstad; Friis, Jesper; Hoche, Daniel; Swang, Ole (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The structure of Calcium-Silicate-Hydrate (C-S-H) and the effect of variations in its water content have been investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Trends for calculated densities as a function ...
