Concrete Fracture Models and Applications

By Shailendra Kumar & Sudhirkumar V Barai

Release : 2011-02-08

Genre : Civil Engineering, Books, Professional & Technical, Engineering, Science & Nature, Mathematics

Kind : ebook

(0 ratings)
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 propagation and unstable fracture or failure. Fracture Mechanics concept can better explain the above various stages including the concepts of ductility, size-effect, strain softening and post-cracking behavior of concrete and concrete structures.
