Simulating Tensile and Compressive Failure Process of Concrete with a User-defined Bonded-Particle Model

Abstract A user-defined bonded-particle model (UBM) which is based on the modified parallel bond was established in this paper to investigate the tensile and compressive failure mechanism of concrete on the three-dimensional (3D) level. The contact constitutive relation and the failure criterion of...
