An Extended Mixture Approach for Modeling of Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Materials

by David J. Stevens, Clarkson Univ, United States,
Dajin Liu, Clarkson Univ, United States,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Serviceability and Durability of Construction Materials

Abstract:

A rate-independent, anisotropic model for Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Materials (FRCMs) is presented. A continuum damage/plasticity model for the concrete and an effective fiber model for the fiber contribution are outlined and then combined in a mixture approach. The mixture model reproduces the important experimental phenomenon of the plain material and FRCM. Comparisons between the model's predictions and experimental results for plain and fiber reinforced materials show good agreement.
