Abstract
The diffuse damage and localized cracking of quasi-brittle materials (i.e., rocks and concretes) under compression can be delineated by a matrix-microcrack system, wherein a solid matrix phase is weakened by a large number of randomly oriented and distributed microcracks, and the macroscopic cracking is formed by a progressive evolution of microcracks. Several homogenization-based multiscale models have been proposed to describe this matrix-microcrack system, but most of them are based on a linear friction law on the microcrack surface, rendering a linear strength criterion. In this paper, we propose a new quadratic friction law within the local multiscale friction-damage (LMFD) model to capture the plastic distortion due to frictional sliding along the rough microcrack surface. Following that, a macroscopic Ottosen-type nonlinear strength criterion is rationally derived with up-scaling friction-damage coupling analysis. An enhanced semi-implicit return mapping (ESRM) algorithm with a substepping scheme is then developed to integrate the complex nonlinear constitutive model. The performance of LMFD model is evaluated compared to a wide range of experimental data on plain concretes, and the robustness of ESRM algorithm is assessed through a series of numerical tests. Subsequently, to effectively describe the localized cracking process, a regularization scheme is proposed by combining the phase-field model with the established LMFD model, and the discretization independent crack localization is numerically verified.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Solids and Structures has as its objective the publication and dissemination of original research in Mechanics of Solids and Structures as a field of Applied Science and Engineering. It fosters thus the exchange of ideas among workers in different parts of the world and also among workers who emphasize different aspects of the foundations and applications of the field.
Standing as it does at the cross-roads of Materials Science, Life Sciences, Mathematics, Physics and Engineering Design, the Mechanics of Solids and Structures is experiencing considerable growth as a result of recent technological advances. The Journal, by providing an international medium of communication, is encouraging this growth and is encompassing all aspects of the field from the more classical problems of structural analysis to mechanics of solids continually interacting with other media and including fracture, flow, wave propagation, heat transfer, thermal effects in solids, optimum design methods, model analysis, structural topology and numerical techniques. Interest extends to both inorganic and organic solids and structures.
