“…It is worth noting that realistic C-S-H gel should be a poly-dispersed system, i.e., the system contains variously sized particles, and the space between large particles can be filled by small ones so that both packing fraction and mechanical properties are enhanced [10]. The present model uses disk-like building blocks but the poly-dispersity of C-S-H is not considered here.…”

“…The coarse-grained model can capture the mesoscale features of the C-S-H gel. For example, a previously developed coarse-grained model, which assumes that the C-S-H gel is an aggregate of spherical particles, can reasonably describe the nucleation, packing, and rigidity of the C-S-H aggregates [10]. Nonetheless, the shape of the building blocks is rarely considered.…”

In this context, coarse-grained simulations can translate the information from nanoscale to mesoscale, thus bridging the multiscale investigations. Here, we develop a coarse-grained model of cement matrix using the concept of disk-like building block. The objective is to introduce a new method to construct a coarse-grained model of cement, which could contribute to the scale-bridging issue from nanoscale to mesoscale.
