Numerical analysis of concrete material properties at high strain rate under direct tension

The tensile strength of concrete material increases with the strain rate. Dynamic tensile strength of concrete material is usually obtained by conducting laboratory tests such as direct tensile test, flexural test, spall test or splitting test (Brazilian test). Some codes of practice such as Comite...
