Stress Evolution in Early-Age Cementitious Materials Considering Autogenous Deformation and Creep: New experimental and modelling techniques

Since the introduction of cementitious materials, shrinkage-induced earlyage cracking (EAC) has emerged as a significant issue that negatively influences the function, durability, and aesthetics of concrete structures like dams, tunnels, and underground garages. This thesis aims to develop new experimental and modelling techniques that help...
