Abstract: Modeling the complex behavior of concrete for a specific mixture is a challenging task, as it requires bridging the cement scale and the concrete scale. We describe a multiscale analysis procedure for the modeling of concrete structures, in which material properties at the macro scale are evaluated based on lower scales. The analysis procedure starts from a known chemical and mechanical set of parameters of the cement paste, which are used to evaluate the mechanical properties of the LDPM concrete parameters for pore collapse and material compaction responses of the concrete.
