The detrimental effect of corrosion is due to the fact that a rust product has a volume 2 - 6 times larger than the original steel. Consequently, the rust products exert an expansive stress on the surrounding concrete whose tensile strength is usually low. This paper attempts the application of an analytical and numerical approaches to simulation of concrete cracking due to corrosion of reinforcement. At first, a combination and detailed analysis of two analytical models proposed by Liu and Weyers (1998) and Li et al. (2006) is presented. Four distinct phases of the corrosion process are identified and a detailed guide through the mathematical development is described. In the next, numerical computations obtained with nonlinear finite element code are presented. The model features the state-of-the-art in nonlinear fracture mechanics modeling and the heterogeneous structure of concrete is modeled via spatially varying parameters of the constitutive law. The crack growth in concrete induced by corrosion of steel reinforcement is modeled with the crack band model combined with a suitable damage law. Finally, the results of the analytical studies are compared to numerical computations obtained with the nonlinear finite element code and the paper concludes with a real-life numerical example.
