Detennining the constitutive model is a key procedure in numerical simulation of concrete structures. The uniaxial stress-strain curve is important information to determine the concrete constitutive model. This paper provided a simplified stress-strain curve of concrete that can be used in simulation. The comparison between Chinese Code and the simplified curve shows that the simplified curve of uniaxial compression is close to the code value. Numerical simulation of concrete beams show that the simplified curve proposed has high computational efficiency and good convergence.

Regional confined concrete is base on confined concrete. It is the theory and application of a new attempt and development on confined concrete. To apply it to the actual project, we need to research mechanical properties and establish constitutive relationship of regional confined concrete. According to the research, we had carried on a series of tests, founded the stress-strain constitutive model of regional confined concrete under single axial press. The accuracy of theoretical analysis were more fully verified , and a theoretical basis for the application was provided.

It is necessary to establish a constitutive model of 30CrMoA steel to optimize the forming shape and mechanical properties of high-speed train axles. The experimental stress–strain curve of 30CrMoA steel was obtained by an isothermal compression test on a Gleeble-3500 thermal simulation test machine under temperature of 1273~1423 K and strain rate of 0.01~10 s−1. Considering the effect of strain on the material constant, an empirical constitutive model was proposed with strain correction for 30CrMoA steel. In addition, the material constant in the constitutive model is determined by linear regression analysis of the experimental stress–strain curve. Comparing the theoretical value and experimental value of flow stress, the correlation R is 0.9828 and the average relative error (ARRE) is 4.652%. The constitutive model of 30CrMoA steel with strain correction can reasonably predict the flow stress under various conditions. The results provide an effective numerical tool for further study on accurate near-net forming of high-speed train axles.

A nanoindentation technique with a spherical indenter of tip radius 10 μm is applied to the evaluation of stress-strain curve at a local area of a pure iron under the uniaxial compressive stress exerted through the iron, and the influence of the compressive stress on the estimated stress-strain curve has been examined. A continuous multiple loading method is employed to determine the stress-strain curve. In the method, a set of 21 times of loading/unloading sequences with increasing terminal load are made and load-displacement curves with the different terminal loads from 0.1 mN to 100 mN are then continuously obtained and converted to a stress-strain curve. To examine the stress dependence of the stress-strain curve, the estimation by the nanoindentetion is performed under different uniaxial compressive stresses up to 250 MPa. It has been found that the stress-strain curve determined by the nanoindentation shifts upward as the compressive stress increases and the quantity of the shift is almost equal to the uniaxial stress acting on the iron specimen. It is also noted that the yield stress (0.2 % proof stress) estimated from the stress-strain curve increases almost proportionally to the uniaxial stress and the increase ratio tends to decrease as the stress reaches around 200 MPa.

A formula—Nadai's bending formula—is derived which enables the tension (or compression) stress-strain curve for a material to be obtained from the curve relating bending moment to curvature for a beam of solid rectangular section. The method is extended to give a formula which covers deformations in which reversals of plastic strain occur. The results obtained from a unidirectional bending test made on annealed copper are compared with those obtained from a tensile test made on the same material and the accuracy of the stress-strain values obtained from the bending test is discussed. The results obtained from a reversed bending test are also compared with those obtained from a tension-compression test in which a specimen was first stretched and then compressed to its original length. The limitations imposed by this method of obtaining the stress-strain curve for a material are examined and the advantages its presents in the study of the behaviour of materials under uniaxial stress are outlined.

Based on Lemaitre’s strain equivalence hypothesis theory, it is assumed that the strength of acid-etching rock microelements under the coupling effect of temperature and confining pressure follows the Weibull distribution. Under the hypothesis that micro-element damage meets the D-P criterion and based on continuum damage mechanics and statistical theory, chemical damage variables, thermal damage variables and mechanical damage variables were introduced in the construction of damage evolution equations and constitutive models for acid-etching rocks considering the coupled effects of temperature and confining pressure. The required model parameters were obtained by theoretical derivation, and the model was verified based on the triaxial compression test data of granite. Comparing the experimental stress-strain curve with the theoretical stress-strain curve, the results show that they were in good agreement. By selecting reasonable model parameters, the damage statistical constitutive model can accurately reflect the stress-strain curve characteristics of rock in the process of triaxial compression. The comparison between the experimental and theoretical results also verifies the reasonableness and reliability of the model. This model provides a new rock damage statistical constitutive equation for the study of rock mechanics and its application in engineering, and has certain reference significance for rock underground engineering.

A water-rich sand layer is a common stratum in marine underground engineering. Grouting is a technology for soil or rock sealing, a method to solve the water seepage problem, and can be used to solve geological challenges in water-rich sand layers. A grouting-reinforced body deteriorates by the long-term erosion of seawater, resulting in attenuation of the performance of the solid. Obtaining the decay law of the performance of the grouting-reinforced body can guarantee the safe operation of the underground structure over a long life cycle. To this end, by describing the solid damage after seawater erosion, the stress–strain curve and the relationship between the damage variable and the internal micro-cracks and pores in the grouting-reinforced body were analyzed. Then, a constitutive model of the solid damage in the seawater environment was established. The stress–strain curve of added solid after deterioration was obtained by designing an indoor grouting reinforcement test and an accelerated deterioration test. Finally, the constitutive model of the sand layer plus solid deterioration in a seawater environment was determined. This research is of great importance for improving the deterioration theory under a seawater environment and ensuring the long term safety of tunnel operations.
