| Abstract: | The durability of reinforced concrete is closely related to the transport behavior of water and aggressive ions within the complex nanoporous network of calcium silicate hydrate. While molecular dynamics simulations provide critical atomistic insights into these confined transport behaviors, their immense computational cost limits their scalability to complex structural and temporal domains. To overcome this bottleneck, we propose a novel, modular computational framework that synergizes high-throughput molecular dynamics with advanced graph neural networks. By rigorously learning the mapping between the local atomic environment and kinetic behaviors, our model achieves high-fidelity predictions of pore water diffusion coefficients in saturated calcium silicate hydrate while improving computational efficiency by three orders of magnitude compared to conventional force field methods. Furthermore, the model demonstrates strong transferability and can accurately capture localized nonlinear diffusion characteristics in multiparticle pore structures with rough surfaces. Building on the interchangeability of this framework's core modules, we envision a visionary multiscale computational strategy that dynamically couples nanoscale atomistic predictions with mesoscale simulations. This work not only provides an ultrafast, highly accurate tool for screening transport properties across diverse structural configurations but also lays the groundwork for next-generation multiscale modeling of chloride ingress, ultimately advancing the design of resilient and sustainable reinforced concrete.
