AB  - Consideration of moisture transport in addition to external loading is a prerequistite for reliable durability analyses of structures made of concrete. The presentation is concerned with the modeling of cohe- sive cracks in partially saturated cementitious materials using the Extended Finite Element Method (X-FEM), focussing on the interactions between cracks and moisture transport. To this end, a coupled hygro-mechanical modelforpartially saturated concrete is extended for the consideration of cracks in the context of a 3D X-FEM model. Moistureflowwithincrack planesis accounted for by assumingPoiseuille flow within the crack planes, taking the tortuousity and the crack width dependence of the liquid permeability…
