v4.26.101 TTNV101 — Concrete drying — identification of parameters on the mass loss curve

Summary:

The objective of this test is to give an example of simulating concrete drying and calculating mass loss. The mass loss curve is often used to identify the parameters of drying laws.

The aim is to calculate the loss of mass (water) over time. A prismatic sample is modelled in 3D. The law of drying is SECH_GRANGER.
