Multiscale Modelling of Concrete covers all things concrete, including comprehensive discussions on this multi-phase and multi-scale material that is difficult to model and understand due to its heterogeneity. Thus, knowing the properties and modeling concrete in different scales is essential to predict properties and fracture. Most of the research has been focused on meso scale, or the methods available to model and predict micro-scale properties are not linked to experimental methods, so properties for microscale cannot be derived and it is onerous to validate such methods.
Considering the above constraints, the book covers different modelling techniques of scales of concrete - macro, meso, micro/nano and molecular level, characterizing mechanical properties and parameters required for modelling using macro and micro level experiments and linking these levels using analytical and numerical methods to upscale results from micro to the macro level.
- Covers the multiscale nature of concrete and different characteristics of concrete at macro, meso, micro, nano, and atomic scales
- Includes finite element modeling of concrete at different length scales and advanced constitutive models of concrete and its constituents from nano to macroscales
- Surveys state-of-the-art experimental techniques to obtain mechanical properties of concrete at various spatial scales
- Includes numerical and analytical homogenization methods to upscale and predict the macroscopic behavior of concrete and advanced molecular dynamics simulations of concrete constituents at the atomic and nanoscale

About the Author
Dr Shanaka Kristombu Baduge is a Senior Lecturer from the Department of Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, RMIT University. His expertise and research outcomes in high-performance concrete and multiscale modelling of concrete have been recognised by the Concrete Institute of Australia with the Victoria Excellence Award on “Technology and Innovation (2019).
Professor Mendis is a professor at the University of Melbourne, Australia with over 35 years of research experience. Prof. Mendis is a world leader in the field of construction and building materials, and concrete technology. He is the Director of ARC Centre for Advanced Manufacturing of Prefabricated Modular Housing and deputy director of the ARC Research Hub for Transformation of Reclaimed Waste into Engineered Materials and Solutions (TREMS). He has authored and co-authored more than 500 publications.
Dr Thilakarathna is a research fellow at the Department of Infrastructure Engineering, The University of Melbourne, Australia. He has expertise in multiscale modelling of concrete, numerical modelling of concrete structures and microstructural characterisation. He has published several journal papers related to multiscale modelling and his PhD thesis was mainly focused on multiscale modelling of high-strength concrete. He has developed new methods and theories to characterise material on the nano/micro scale to determine microstructural phases and their properties and link these properties to the macro scale.
Dr Vimonsatit has a broad range of experience in research and engineering practices in the construction industry. Her research interests are multiscale modelling, AI for material and structural design, buildability, construction materials, structural engineering, and sustainability. She has published many research articles on the field of multiscale modelling and has extensive knowledge of numerical modelling methods and homogenization methods.

Right of withdrawal
If you are a consumer you can withdraw from the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.
Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to GreatBookPrices, Bensenville, Illinois, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us.
