Continuous and Discontinuous Modelling of Fracture in Concrete Using FEM

This book offers a detailed analysis of a quasi-static fracture process in concrete and reinforced concrete by means of constitutive models formulated within continuum mechanics, using both continuous and discontinuous modeling approaches.
