Fracture Mechanics of Crack Bands in Concrete

Autor: L Cedolin, ZP Bažant

Recent works on finite element models for fracture and cracking of concrete are summarized and reviewed. An element-wide band of smeared cracks represents an effective and realistic model for fracture of plain concrete and reinforced concrete. The cr
