Fracture and Size Effect in Concrete and Other Quasibrittle
Materials is the first in-depth text on the application of fracture
mechanics to the analysis of failure in concrete structures. The
book synthesizes a vast number of recent research results in the
literature to provide a comprehensive treatment of the topic that
does not give merely the facts - it provides true understanding.
The many recent results on quasibrittle fracture and size effect,
which were scattered throughout many periodicals, are compiled here
in a single volume. This book presents a well-rounded discussion of
the theory of size effect and scaling of failure loads in
structures. The size effect, which is the most important practical
manifestation of fracture behavior, has become a hot topic. It has
gained prominence in current research on concrete and quasibrittle
materials.
The treatment of every subject in Fracture and Size Effect in
Concrete and Other Quasibrittle Materials proceeds from simple to
complex, from specialized to general, and is as concise as possible
using the simplest level of mathematics necessary to treat the
subject clearly and accurately. Whether you are an engineering
student or a practicing engineer, this book provides you with a
clear presentation, including full derivations and examples, from
which you can gain real understanding of fracture and size effect
in concrete and other quasibrittle materials.
