Influence of flaw inclination angle and loading condition on crack initiation and propagation

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of pre-existing flaw inclination angle on the cracking process was analyzed by means of finite element method (FEM) and non-linear dynamics method, and the resultant crack types, crack initiation sequences and the overall crack pattern were different under different loading conditions.

Tensile Rate Effects in High Strength-High Ductility Concrete

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of strain rate (from 10−4/s to 10/s) on composite tensile properties and the micro-scale fiber/matrix interaction properties of HSHDC were investigated.

Numerical simulation of dynamic fracture of concrete through uniaxial tension and L-specimen

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors numerically evaluated the dynamic fracture of concrete using uniaxial tension and L-specimen and found that the direction of crack propagation strongly depends on displacement rate.

Numerical study of dynamic behavior of concrete by meso-scale particle element modeling

TL;DR: Based on the Particle Element Method, a meso-scale dynamic model is developed for numerical study of the dynamic failure behavior of three-phase concrete i.e., aggregate, mortar, and interface, under different strain rates as mentioned in this paper.

Continuous damage model for load-response estimation of concrete

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors estimate the stress-strain relationship for concrete in uniaxial tension by means of a semi-empirical damage model, which is a measure of the relative portion of pores and cracks in the material.

Elastostatic problems of curvilinear cracks in bonded dissimilar materials

TL;DR: In this article, the problem of finding the crack-tip stress-intensity factors, employed m the Griffith-Irwin theory of fracture, was solved in closed form by applying the complex function theory dealing with sectionally holomorphic functions.

Stress-strain behaviour of concrete and mortar at high rates of tensile loading

TL;DR: In this article, the Split-Hopkinson-Bar technique was used in the investigation on tensile stress-strain behaviour of concrete and mortar at high stress rates (5-30 N/mm 2 ms).
