Concrete and Rock Materials

In Radioss these materials can be used to represent rock or concrete materials.

These materials use a Drücker–Prager yield criterion1, which is a pressure-dependent model for determining whether a material has failed or undergone plastic yielding.

Concrete Material (/MAT/LAW10 and /MAT/LAW21)

Drucker-Prager Yield Criteria

Concrete Material (/MAT/LAW24)

LAW24 uses a Drucker-Prager criteria with or without a cap in yield to model a reinforced concrete material. This material law assumes that the two failure mechanisms of the concrete material are tensile cracking and compressive crushing.

Concrete Tensile Behavior

In LAW24, the options Ht, Dsup, and ε max can be used to describe tensile cracking and failure in tension.


Figure 7. LAW24 Tensile Loading

In the initial very small elastic phase, the material has an elastic modulus Ec.

Once tensile strength, ft is reached, the concrete starts to soften with the slope Ht. The maximum damage factor, Dsup, is significant because it enables the modeling of residual stiffness during and after a crack.


Figure 8. Maximum Damage Factor Effects
The residual stiffness is computed as:(5) E=( 1 D sup ) E c MathType@MTEF@5@5@+= feaagKart1ev2aaatCvAUfeBSjuyZL2yd9gzLbvyNv2CaerbuLwBLn hiov2DGi1BTfMBaeXatLxBI9gBaerbd9wDYLwzYbItLDharqqtubsr 4rNCHbGeaGqiVu0Je9sqqrpepC0xbbL8F4rqqrFfpeea0xe9Lq=Jc9 vqaqpepm0xbbG8FasPYRqj0=yi0dXdbba9pGe9xq=JbbG8A8frFve9 Fve9Ff0dmeaabaqaciGacaGaaeqabaWaaeaaeaaakeaacaWGfbGaey ypa0ZaaeWaaeaacaaIXaGaeyOeI0IaamiramaaBaaaleaaciGGZbGa aiyDaiaacchaaeqaaaGccaGLOaGaayzkaaGaeyyXICTaamyramaaBa aaleaacaWGJbaabeaaaaa@436C@

When there is crack closure, the concrete becomes elastic again, and the damage factor (for each direction) is conserved.

The bearing capacity of concrete in tensile is much lower than in compression. It is normally considered elastic when in tension.

It is recommended to choose a Dsup value close to 1 (default is 0.99999) in order to minimize the current stiffness at the end of the damage and consequently avoid residual stress in tension, which can become very high if the element is highly deformed due to tension. This will happen if the force causing the damage remains.

It is possible to adjust the Dsup (and Ht) in order to simulate and fit the behavior of concrete reinforced by fibers. The concrete material fails once it reaches the total failure strain ε max .

Concrete Yield Surface in Compression

For concrete, the yield surface is the beginning of the plastic hardening zone which is between the failure surface, r f MathType@MTEF@5@5@+= feaagKart1ev2aaatCvAUfeBSjuyZL2yd9gzLbvyNv2CaerbuLwBLn hiov2DGi1BTfMBaeXatLxBI9gBaerbd9wDYLwzYbItLDharqqtubsr 4rNCHbGeaGqiVu0Je9sqqrpepC0xbbL8F4rqqrFfpeea0xe9Lq=Jc9 vqaqpepm0xbbG8FasPYRqj0=yi0dXdbba9pGe9xq=JbbG8A8frFve9 Fve9Ff0dmeaabaqaciGacaGaaeqabaWaaeaaeaaakeaacaWGYbWaaS baaSqaaiaadAgaaeqaaaaa@386C@ , and the yield surface.

The yield surface is assumed to be the same as the failure surface in the tension zone.

Concrete Reinforcement

In Radioss there are two different ways to simulate the reinforcement in concrete.
  • One way is to use beam or truss elements and connect them to the concrete with kinematic conditions.
  • Another way is to use the parameters in LAW24 along with the orthotropic solid property /PROP/TYPE6 to define the reinforced direction.

For most materials such as metal, the plastic strain increment could be considered normal to yield surface. However, if the plastic strain increment normal to yield surface is used for rock or concrete materials, the plastic volume expansion is overestimated.
