Studying the effect of a hydrostatic stress/strain reduction factor on damage mechanics of concrete materials

In the non-linear finite element analysis (NFEA) of concrete materials, continuum damage mechanics (CDM) provides a powerful framework for the derivation of constitutive models capable of describing the mechanical behavior of such materials. The internal state variables of CDM can be introduced to t...
