Interplay of sources of size effects in concrete specimens studied via computational stochastic fracture mechanics

Original language description

We attempt the identification, study and modelling of possible sources of size effects in concrete structures acting both separately and together. We are particularly motivated by the interplay of several identified scaling lengths stemming from the material, boundary conditions and geometry. We model the well published results of direct tensile tests of dog-bone specimens with rotating boundary conditions using methods of stochastic nonlinear fracture mechanics. Firstly, we model the specimens using microplane material law to show that a large portion of the dependence of nominal strength on structural size can be explained deterministically.
