Abstract EN
The base force element method (BFEM) on damage mechanics is used to analyze the compressive strength, the size effects of compressive strength, and fracture process of concrete at mesolevel.
The concrete is taken as three-phase composites consisting of coarse aggregate, hardened cement mortar, and interfacial transition zone (ITZ) on mesolevel.
The random aggregate model is used to simulate the mesostructure of concrete.
The mechanical properties and fracture process of concrete under uniaxial compression loading are simulated using the BFEM on damage mechanics.
The simulation results agree with the test results.
This analysis method is the new way for investigating fracture mechanism and numerical simulation of mechanical properties for concrete.
