4.10. Concrete
The concrete material model predicts the failure of brittle materials. Both cracking and crushing failure modes are accounted for. TB,CONCR accesses this material model, which is available with the reinforced concrete element SOLID65. The criterion for failure of concrete due to a multiaxial stress state can be expressed i the form (Willam and Warnke([37])): (432
where: F = a function (to be discussed) of the principal stress state ( xp, yp, zp) S = failure surface (to be discussed) expressed in terms of principal stresses and five input parameters ft, fc , fcb, f1 and f2 defined in Table 4.4: Concrete Material Table fc = uniaxial crushing strength xp , yp, zp = principal stresses in principal directions If Equation 4326 is satisfied, the material will crack or crush. A total of five input strength parameters (each of which can be temperature depende are needed to define the failure surface as well as an ambient hydrostatic stress state These are presented in Table 4.4: Concrete Material Table.

However, the failure surface can be specified with a minimum of two constants, f t and fc . The other three constants default to Willam and Warnke([37]): (432 (432 (432 However, these default values are valid only for stress states where the condition (433

is satisfied. Thus condition Equation 4330 applies to stress situations with a low hydrostatic stress component. All five failure parameters should be specified when a large hydrostatic stress component is expected. If condition Equation 4330 is not satisfied and the default values shown in Equation 4327 thru Equation 4329 are assumed, the strength of the concrete material may be incorrectly evaluated. When the crushing capability is suppressed with fc = -1.0, the material cracks whenev a principal stress component exceeds f t. Both the function F and the failure surface S are expressed in terms of principal stress denoted as 1 , 2 , and 3 where: (433 (433 and 1 1. 0 2. 1 3. 1 4. 1 2 1 0 2 2 3. The failure of concrete is categorized into four domains: 2 2 0 3 3 (compression - compression - compression) 3 (tensile - compression - compression) 3 (tensile - tensile - compression) 0 (tensile - tensile - tensile)
In each domain, independent functions describe F and the failure surface S. The four functions describing the general function F are denoted as F 1 , F2 , F3, and F4 while th

functions describing S are denoted as S1, S2 , S3 , and S4 . The functions S i (i = 1,4) have the properties that the surface they describe is continuous while the surface gradients are not continuous when any one of the principal stresses changes sign. Th surface will be shown in Figure 4.30: 3-D Failure Surface in Principal Stress Space and Figure 4.32: Failure Surface in Principal Stress Space with Nearly Biaxial Stress. These functions are discussed in detail below for each domain.
In the compression - compression - compression regime, the failure criterion of Willam and Warnke([37]) is implemented. In this case, F takes the form (433
and S is defined as

h is defined by Equation 4331 and the undetermined coefficients a0 , a1, a2 , b0 , b1, and b2 are discussed below. This failure surface is shown as Figure 4.30: 3-D Failure Surface in Principal Stress Space. The angle of similarity describes the relative magnitudes of the principal stresses. From Equation 4336, = 0 refers to any stress state such that 3 = 2 > 1 (e.g. uniaxial compression, biaxial tension) while = 60 for any stress state wher 3 >2 = 1 (e.g. uniaxial tension, biaxial compression). All other multiaxial stress sta have angles of similarity such that 0 60. When = 0, S 1 Equation 4335 equals r1 while if = 60, S1 equals r2 . Therefore, the function r1 represents the failu surface of all stress states with = 0. The functions r1 , r2 and the angle are depicted on Figure 4.30: 3-D Failure Surface in Principal Stress Space.

It may be seen that the cross-section of the failure plane has cyclic symmetry about e 120 sector of the octahedral plane due to the range 0 < < 60 of the angle of similitude. The function r1 is determined by adjusting a0 , a1, and a2 such that ft, fcb, and f1 all lie on the failure surface. The proper values for these coefficients are determined through solution of the simultaneous equations:

and 0 is the positive root of the equation (434 where a0 , a1, and a2 are evaluated by Equation 4340. Since the failure surface must remain convex, the ratio r1 / r2 is restricted to the rang (434 although the upper bound is not considered to be restrictive since r1 / r2 < 1 for mos

Also, the coefficients a 0 , a1 , a2, b0 , b1 , and b2 must satisfy the conditions (Willam and Warnke([37])): (434 (434 Therefore, the failure surface is closed and predicts failure under high hydrostatic pressure ( > 2). This closure of the failure surface has not been verified experiment and it has been suggested that a von Mises type cylinder is a more valid failure surfac for large compressive h values (Willam([36])). Consequently, it is recommended tha values of f1 and f2 are selected at a hydrostatic stress level in the vicinity of or above the expected maximum hydrostatic stress encountered in the structure.
Equation 4344 expresses the condition that the failure surface has an apex at = 0

represents the 3-D failure surface for states of stress that are biaxial or nearly biaxial. the most significant nonzero principal stresses are in the xp and yp directions, the three surfaces presented are for zp slightly greater than zero, zp equal to zero, and zp slightly less than zero. Although the three surfaces, shown as projections on the xp - yp plane, are nearly equivalent and the 3-D failure surface is continuous, the mode of material failure is a function of the sign of zp. For example, if xp and yp a both negative and zp is slightly positive, cracking would be predicted in a direction
