Original Abstract

Concrete is represented as a three-phase material in this paper. Behaviour of a single macrocrack approaching to the interface between hardened cement paste (matrix) and agregate (particle) is modelled and interfacial transition zone is taken into account. Results of these analyses are useful for description of fracture behaviour of macrocrack propagation with respect to material parameters of matrix, interfacial transition zone and paticle. FEM is used in this study.
