About J. Torrenti
Jean-Michel Torrenti is the R & D director of the Materials and Structures Department of IFSTTAR and a Professor at Ecole Nationale des Ponts et Chaussees. His research concerns the mechanics of concrete and its coupling with durability aspects, and has been applied to modeling the behavior of structures such as bridges, nuclear power plants and nuclear waste storage. He is the co-author of several books concerning concrete and concrete structures. Gilles Pijaudier-Cabot graduated from Ecole Normale Superieure de Cachan - France - in 1985 and obtained a Ph.D. from Northwestern University. He was appointed professor at Ecole Normale Superieure de Cachan in 1992 where he was the head of the civil and environmental engineering group. He joined Ecole Centrale de Nantes in 1999 and started a research and technology group specialising in the durability of concrete structures. Jean-Marie Reynouard is the editor of Mechanical Behavior of Concrete, published by Wiley.
