Strain-hardening cementitious composites (SHCCs) have gained the growing application in the infrastructures with exhibiting superior tensile behavior by the formation of the fine multiple cracking. The micromechanics-based method is in the light of governing mechanisms of the multiple cracking by considering the interaction between the fiber, the matrix and the fiber/matrix interface, and thus has
The safety of double wall Concrete Containment Buildings (CCBs) primarily depends on the integrity of concrete. The delayed deformations of concrete induced by creep and shrinkage cause the loss of pre-stress that may reduce the air-tightness of the CCB internal wall in accidental conditions. Creep of concrete is a complex phenomenon and its rate depends
The embedding of anchoring systems in the retrofitting of Reinforced Concrete (RC) structures by means of Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRP) often implies local failure modes associated with high stress concentrations. In order to account for such mechanical behaviours in standard fi- nite element computations, an explicit representation of interfaces is usually required. This strategy presents,
In the publication at hand, a rate dependent plasticity model is introduced to describe the constitutive behavior of concrete. The smooth three surface Drucker-Prager yield function with caps is modified to account for the rate effects by use of the viscoplastic consistency model. Moreover, the fracture process is described via the eigenerosion approach in the
The object of this work is to provide a more general formulation of the cohesive size effect curve to include structural configurations with blunt and sharp notches. An extensive cam- paign of accurate numerical simulations, based on the cohesive crack model, is performed to compute the Generalized Cohesive Size Effect Curves (GCSEC) for typical test
We analyse the interaction between aggregate properties and concrete strength. A discrete model is used, allowing to decorrelate the effect of aggregate stiffness and aggregate strength. Based on the numerical results, we show that the performance classification of aggregates based on inverse analysis of concrete properties cannot be directly used from one concrete to an
