What is Lateral Deformation in Concrete Compression about?

This document summarizes key behaviors of concrete under uniaxial compression loading. It discusses how lateral deformation increases significantly above 70% of peak stress due to unstable crack growth. Localized shear band formation leads to non-homogeneous post-peak strains. Numerical modeling of softening response is challenging without regularization to introduce an internal length scale related to shear band width.
