Founded upon several works carried out by the Laboratoire Central des Ponts et Chaussees on the dynamic behaviour of concrete (already published), and upon new ideas about dais subject, this article attempts to further develop the analysis of the physical mechanisms. In particular to investigate how the Stefan effect, the cracking process, and the inertia forces participate together in the dynamic behaviour of a specimen subjected to a uniaxial tensile test. These mechanisms can be summed up as follows:1. At strain rates smaller than approximately 1 s(-1), the main physical mechanism is a viscous mechanism that may be regarded as similar to the Stefan effect. This mechanism counters both a microcracking localization, leading to an increase of concrete tensile strength, and the macrocrack propagation that leads to failure of the specimen.2. At strain rates greater than or equal to approximately 10s(-1), the forces of inertia become preponderant. They counter microcracking localization and in particular macrocrack propagation.
