Modeling of Chloride Distribution in Cement-Based Materials with Neumann Boundary Condition

The nonstable transport of chloride in cement-based materials, including diffusion, convection, and chloride binding, is described as a general form of Fick’s law. Inspired by the heat transport of concrete, the second boundary condition called the Neumann boundary condition is considered in the chl...
