Determination of fracture toughness in plain concrete specimens by R curve

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2019
Experimental tests and computational algorithm are implemented to investigate crack growth phenomena in C0.7 concrete. Firstly, three point bending tests are carried out on normalized prismatic specimens notched laterally (SENB), then, computational ...

Creep and Fracture in Concrete: A Fractional Order Rate Approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The paper analyses the interaction between strain-softening and time-dependent behaviour in the case of quasi-static fracture of concrete. A viscous element based on a fractional order rate law is coupled with a micromecanical model for the fracture ...
