concrete

A fully funded PhD position is available in the area of multi-scale modeling of geomaterials within the research projectFailure of cohesive geomaterials: bridging the scales - GEOBRIDGEat Laboratoire Sols, Solides, Structures – Risques (3S-R), Université Joseph Fourier, Grenoble, France.

In my opioion, the traditional concrete model is taking the smeared cracking concept to deal with the tensile cracking and using the elastoplastic method to deal with the compressive softening.

We can find that recently the CDM based concrete model become a hot research subject.

But what are the advantages of the CDM-based?

Thank you very much!
