Abstract:Concrete structures under wind and earthquake loads will experience tensile and compressive stress reversals. It is very important to accurately reproduce the hysteretic behavior and energy dissipation of concrete materials under cyclic tension–compression for the safety evaluation of concrete structures. A hysteretic model for concrete under cyclic tension–compression is proposed in the framework of smeared crack theory. Based on the crack surface opening–closing mechanism, the relationship between crack surf… Show more
