Simulation results agree with the experimental observations. It is demonstrated that the damaged plasticity model for concrete in the finite element software ABAQUS can predict dynamic responses and typical flexure, flexure-shear and direct shear failure modes of the blast-loaded RC structures.展开更多

Secondly, based on the principle of ‘gradient-dependent energy dissipation', a gradient-dependent constitutive model for plasticity coupled with isotropic damage was presented in the framework of continuum thermodynamics. Numerical scheme for calculation of Laplacian term of damage field with the numerical results obtained by FEM calculation was proposed. Equations have been presented on the basis of Taylor series for both 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional cases, respectively. Numerical results have indicated the validity of the proposed gradient-dependent model and corresponding numerical scheme.展开更多

The results showed that the peak strength strain was independent of the hardening ductility parameter DH,but affected by AH,BH,and CH. The softening ductility was mainly related to the softening ductility parameter AS,but not affected by the damage ductility exponent BS. In case that the model with default parameters failed to match the AS-controlled damage softening phase,an optimized model with an AS correction was developed. The corrected model with the AS value of 2 matched well with the code model,and exhibited good feasibility in predicting the stress-strain curve of different grades of concrete. Moreover,the practicability of the corrected model was further validated by the conventional triaxial test. The simulated curve exhibited favorable consistence with the trial curve. Therefore,the model with parameter correction could provide a prospective reference for predicting the mechanical properties of concrete.展开更多

Firstly, both the stretching and bending moments of the bonds between the material points are added to peridynamic pairwise force functions, and the coordinate transformation of the micro-beam made up of bonds is deduced. Therefore, the numerical calculation implementation of the improved micropolar peridynamic model is obtained. Then, the strain values are obtained by solving the difference equation based on the displacement values of material points, and the stress values can be calculated according to generalized Hook’s law. The elastic and plastic deformation stages can be estimated based on the von Mises yield criterion, and different constitutive equations are adopted to simulate the damage evolution. Finally, the proposed micropolar peridynamic model is applied to simulate the damage evolution of a metal plate with a hole under velocity boundary conditions, and the effectiveness of the model is verified through experiments. In the experiments, the displacement and strain distributions in the stretching process are analyzed by the digital image correlation(DIC) method. By comparing the results, the proposed model is more accurate than the bond-based peridynamic model and the error of the proposed model is 7.2% lower than that of the bond-based peridynamic model. By loading different velocity boundary conditions, the relationship between the loads and damage evolution is studied.展开更多

Undisturbed expansive soil was considered as a compound of non-damaged part and damaged part. The behavior of the non-damaged part was described using non-linear constitutive model of unsaturated soil. The property of the damaged part was described using a damage evolution equation and two yield surfaces, i.e., loading yield (LY) and shear yield (SY). Furthermore, a consolidation model for unsaturated undisturbed expansive soil was established and a FEM program named UESEPDC was designed. Numerical analysis on solid-liquid-gas tri-phases and multi-field couple problem was conducted for four stages and fields of stress, displacement, pore water pressure, pore air pressure, water content, suction, and the damage region as well as plastic region in an expansive soil slope were obtained.展开更多
