Concrete Fracture Mechanics: Failure Analysis, Modeling, and Applied Examples of Reinforcement offers in-depth insights into concrete failure analysis from a technical standpoint (i.e., calculations, structural prerequisites, step-by-step guidance on key manufacturing processes, revisions of conventional concepts in the light of new findings) and takes a step forward in modeling methods for predicting the performance and behavior of concrete structures by using cutting-edge software tools for image processing and numerical simulation. This carefully thought-out, practical reference is intended to cater to students, researchers, and practicing professionals from a variety of closely interrelated civil engineering disciplines.
