Zhang, H. (author), Schlangen, E. (author), Ge, Zhi (author), Šavija, B. (author)Properties of concrete are, to a large extent, dependent on the properties of its binding constituent, hydrated cement paste. Therefore, knowledge of properties of hydrated cement paste is crucial for predicting concrete behaviour. This paper presents an experimentally informed approach for modelling elastic and transport properties of cement...conference paper 2021
