ABSTRACT

The degradation and failure of brittle or quasi-brittle geomaterials are analyzed in this Lecture. The main emphasis is put on the discrimination between discrete and continuum approaches to describe damage and fracture. The materials studied herein are cement, high-performance concrete and rocks.

RÉSUMÉ

L'endommagement et la rupture de géomatériaux à comportement fragile ou quasi fragile est analysé ici. Un accent particulier est mis sur la discrimination entre descriptions discrète et continue de l'endommagement et de la rupture. Les matériaux analysés sont des bétons, ciments et roches.
