Modelling formation and development of longitudinal cracks in concrete crossing corroding reinforcement

Tensile stresses in concrete occur under the action of reinforcement rust pressure. When they exceed concrete tensile strength or concrete extension strain exceeds limit value, concrete cracks. Physical and numerical models of such cracks are proposed for analysis of formation and development based...
