Analogies in the fracture mechanisms of concrete and ice
B. Chiaia, A.P. Fantilli & B. Frigo
Politecnico di Torino, Torino, Italy
ABSTRACT: The existence of a single model, capable of describing the fracture behaviour of both concrete
and ice, is investigated in the present paper. More precisely, the fracture energy of concrete, and the fracture
toughness of ice as well, are herein predicted through a new size effect law. As in the evaluation of crack
pattern of reinforced concrete ties and beams, ...
