Can I read Concrete Fracture Models and Applications on EtoBox?
Concrete Fracture Models and Applications by Shailendra Kumar, Sudhirkumar V Barai (auth.) is a nonfiction available to read on EtoBox.
What is Concrete Fracture Models and Applications about?
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.
