  • Concrete Fracture Models and Applications

    by Shailendra Kumar, Sudhirkumar V Barai ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    Cementitious materials, rocks and fibre-reinforced composites commonly termed as quasibrittle, need a different fracture mechanics approach to model the crack propagation study because of the presence of significant size of fracture process zone ahead of the crack-tip. Recent studies show that concrete structures manifest three important stages in fracture process: crack initiation, stable crack ... Read more
