Modeling damage behavior of concrete subjected to cyclic and multiaxial loading conditions
Concrete exhibits a different deformation behavior in tension and compression when subjected to uniaxial and biaxial loads. It also reveals crack‐opening and crack‐closing effects under cyclic loads. This paper discusses a gradient‐enhanced continuum damage model to investigate the deformation and damage behavior of concrete subjected to cyclic and multiaxial loading conditions. An activating variable introduced in the model distinguishes the multiaxial stress states. A single damage criterion that relates the history variable to the equivalent strain limits the elastic domain. The evolution of internal variables confirms their thermodynamic consistency. The gradient enrichment of equivalent strains leads to proper localization of deformation. Comparison of numerical predictions with relevant experimental data and some previous models validates the capability of the model to describe softening/crack‐closure behavior under various loading. Application of the model to fracture problems demonstrates the ability of the model to describe damage initiation and propagation, and its localization.
