Short description of project:

In this master's thesis we will model concrete carbonation using mass conservation equations and Darcy's law. We then get a set of coupled partial differential equations. We also have a ordinary differential equation modeling porosity change. These equations are discretized using two-point flux approximation for 1-d in space, and Euler implicit in time. We have a nonlinear pressure equation which is linearized using Newton method. We run simulations, and the results are compared to a constructed analytical solution and to examples in the literature.
