Abstract

Dynamic fracture of two impact loaded, plain concrete, three-point bend specimens was simulated using a dynamic finite element model. A three-segment fracture process zone, which was established in a previous static analysis, together with a tensile overload fracture criterion were used to propagate the crack from the tension side of the unnotched beams. Reasonable agreement between the measured and computed velocities at two points on one beam and estimated and computed average crack velocities was obtained.
