Numerical model for time-dependent fracturing of concrete / Giovanni Di Luzio in Journal of engineering mechanics, Vol. 135 N° 7 (Juillet 2009) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Journal of engineering mechanics > Vol. 135 N° 7 (Juillet 2009) . - pp. 632-640 Titre : Numerical model for time-dependent fracturing of concrete Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Giovanni Di Luzio, Auteur Article en page(s) : pp. 632-640 Note générale : Mécanique appliquée Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Numerical  models  Time  dependence  Concrete  Failures  Cracking. Résumé : A finite-element formulation for the analysis of time-dependent failure of concrete is presented. The proposed formulation incorporates: (1) the viscoelastic behavior of uncracked concrete through a Maxwell chain model; and (2) the inelastic behavior of damaged concrete, characterized by a modified version of the microplane Model M4 which includes the rate dependence of fracturing. The proposed formulation is applied to the simulation of quasi-static concrete failure in the time domain. The different effects of creep and rate dependence of crack growth and their role in the lifetime of concrete structures are studied. The influence of different loading rates on the size effect is also analyzed with reference to single notched specimens, revealing the link between the size of the fracture process zone and the loading rate. The capability of the proposed numerical formulation is also verified for the case of sustained uniaxial compressive loads.
