Abstract:Fracture and failure performance of foamed concrete materials were conducted using three methods, i.e., inverse analysis, digital image correlation (DIC) and finite element modelling (FEM) from tested normalized notched beams under three-point bending. From this study, several characteristics both experimental and FEM are discussed. However inverse analysis is only well applicable for series GF-30. The bilinear softening of the testing beam was estimated to identify fracture energy (GF), critical crack length … Show more
