Micromechanical Damage Model

Strain hardening behavior can be observed in steel fiber reinforced concretes under tensile loads. In this paper, a statistical micromechanical damage framework is presented for the strain hardening steel fiber reinforced concrete (SH-SFRC) considering the interfacial slip-softening and matrix spalling effects. With a linear slip-softening interface law, an analytical model is developed for the single steel fiber pullout behavior. The crack bridging effects are reached by averaging the contribution of the fibers with different inclined angles. Afterwards, the traditional snubbing factor is modified by considering the fiber snubbing and the matrix spalling effects. By adopting the Weibull distribution, a statistical micromechanical damage model is established with the fracture mechanics based cracking criteria and the stress transfer distance. The comparison with the experimental results demonstrates that the proposed framework is capable of reproducing the SH-SFRC’s uniaxial tensile behavior well. Moreover, the impact of the interfacial slip-softening and matrix spalling effects are further discussed with the presented framework.

Micromechanical Damage Model

Dynamic fracture tests are carried out for four groups of hole-containing edge loaded specimens. The crack growth velocity, crack path, and dynamic toughness are extracted from the experiments using high-speed photography and digital image correlation. The importance of the interaction between the in-coming stress wave and the pre-existing hole is revealed and analyzed. A micromechanical damage model is calibrated to the experimental data from two of the specimens' designs and evaluated for its predictive capabilities using the other experimental configurations. The studied model is shown to be in reasonable agreement with the experimental data, and its limits are discussed
