Description: "This book describes the most recent computational approaches, based on fracture mechanics, for the structural analysis of concrete and reinforced concrete. Both smeared and localized numerical fracture models which simulate damage zones and discrete cracks developing in loaded concrete members are considered. Particular loading conditions are also discussed where the use of fracture mechanics is appropriate."--BOOK JACKET.
