  • User-defined material model for steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC)

    User-defined material model for steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC)

    A new custom material model for steel fibre reinforced concrete has been developed as a user material law in ANSYS simulation software. The material model has the form of the hyperbolic Drucker–Prager yield criterion. Representation of the steel fibre reinforced concrete behaviour in tension is provided by trilinear softening function. The material model takes into account thermal dependency. Results of…
