Assessing and Forecasting ISR-Affected Critical Infrastructure: State-of-the-Art and Challenges.

Internal swelling reactions (ISRs) are among the most critical deterioration mechanisms affecting infrastructure's durability worldwide. While preventative measures for new structures have been extensively explored, effective protocols for diagnosing and prognosing ISR-affected structures, especially at their early stages, are still required. Therefore, through a comprehensive bibliometric analysis, this study focuses on exploring the evolution and current methods for assessing and forecasting ISR damage in concrete structures.
