Failure and Plasticity Conditions of Concrete in the Finite Element Analysis

Abstract:

The paper describes and compares selected failure and plasticity conditions of concrete. The CEB-FIB condition, the von Mises plasticity condition with modification for concrete and the Chen-Chen condition are studied. The conditions are compared in 2D and two of these conditions are also used for numerical analysis of a deep beam. The software BSA is chosen for the analysis in the paper. The software BSA is based on the finite element method.
