Abstract
This section is dedicated to the description of a numerical strategy to derive the parameters that define the fracture mode I and fracture mode II of fibre reinforced concrete (FRC). This strategy is herein designated by inverse analysis (IA), and it was used to determine the mode I and II fracture parameters of Recycled Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete (RSFRC) developed in Chap. 8. From the theoretical point of view the proposed IA is applicable to any type of FRC, as long as the setup of the experimental tests, whose results are adopted in the IA, assures the fracture is limited to a unique crack.
