Numerical Simulation of the Fiber Pulled out from Steel-Fiber Concrete

Abstract:

ANSYS finite element analysis software is used to simulate the pull-out process of hooked-end steel fiber from concret in this paper. The contact element is adapted to simulate the interface contact of fiber and concrete, the effect of concrete matrix damage is ignored, the plastic deformation of fibers is considered and the numerical results is good compared with test results. In addition, the effect of some influencing factor on the pull-out process of fibers such as the interface friction coefficient, elastic modulus of matrix, the tensile strength of steel fiber and concrete shrinkage characteristics are discussed.
