Random Lattice Modeling of Quasi-Brittle Fracture in Cementitious Materials: A State of the Art

Article Preview

Abstract:

Lattice models established themselves as a powerful tool to simulate fracture processes in cementitious materials such as concrete. The paper presents the main features of this method, together with the advancements in the modeling of fracture of concrete materials. A historical perspective is also given, highlighting advantages and drawbacks of the existing fracture mechanics theories and numerical methods.
