Modelling of interfacial transition zone effect on resistance to crack propagation in fine-grained cement-based composites

In this paper, the attention is paid to investigation of the importance of the interfacial transition zone (ITZ) in selected fine-grained cement-based composites for the global fracture behaviour. This is a region of cement paste around the aggregate particles which specific features could have sig...
