AB  - The paper deals with numerical simulations of fracture in concrete using a continuous, discontinuous and coupled continuous-discontinuous constitutive model. In a continuum approach, cracks were treated in a smeared sense with an elasto-plastic constitutive law with Rankine criterion. To ensure mesh-insensitive results, an integral non-local theory was applied. Alternatively, cracks were described as displacement jumps using the eXtended Finite Element Method (XFEM). A coupled model of these two formulations was also proposed. Some benchmark tests were performed.
