Abstract
Continuum damage mechanics is a framework for describing the variations of the elastic properties of a material due to microstructural degradations. This chapter presents the application of this theory to the modelling of concrete. Several constitutive relations are devised, including incremental, explicit, and non local damage models. A general framework for damage induced anisotropy is also presented. Coupled damage and plasticity modelling is discussed. Finally, the issue of the experimental determination of the internal length in non local models is tackled.
