Study on Non-Local Damage Constitutive Model of Concrete under Freeze-Thaw Action

Article Preview

Abstract:

Concrete is multi-phase composites. Due to the inhomogeneity of mechanical properties and complexity of physical properties, constitutive relations of concrete are more complicated. Starting from irreversible thermodynamics theory, internal state variable theory and nonlocal field theory, non-local damage constitutive model of concrete under freeze-thaw action is established in this paper. In the model, non-local influence functions are discussed which are used to describe interplay of damage between adjacent point.
