Coupled Damage and Plasticity Modeling in Failure Analysis of Heated Concrete

Article Preview

Abstract:

A coupled elastoplastic-damage constitutive model with consideration of chemo-induced material elastoplastic-damage effects due to heating concrete is proposed. A consistent return mapping algorithm for the integration of the rate coupled constitutive equations is developed. Consistent tangent modulus matrices for coupled chemo-thermo-hygro-mechanical analysis are derived to preserve the quadratic rate of convergence of the global Newton iterative procedure. Numerical results demonstrate the validity of the presented algorithm and illustrate the performance of the proposed constitutive model in reproducing coupled chemo-thermo-hygro-mechanical behavior in concretes subjected to fire.
