Three-Dimensional Damage Model for Concrete. II: Verification

A 3-D damage model for concrete has been proposed in a companion paper. This paper focuses on application of the damage model for quasi-brittle materials such as concrete. Determination of model parameters for the evolution rule of damage is discussed. Model parameters to consider the frictional stress and the stiffness reduction under hydrostatic compression are also studied. For verification, the proposed model is applied to concrete subjected to confined compression, triaxial, loading, and cyclic loading. Consistent results, as compared to other researchers' experimental data, were obtained, and the proposed model is considered worthy of further research work.
