Abstract

AbstractA thermo‐mechanical model for concrete under transient high temperatures is presented. Particular emphasis is placed on the transient thermal creep model, which can be seen as an extension of Thelandersson's formulation, and the gradient‐enhanced damage model that has been extended here to include temperature dependency. Degradation of the material stiffness due to exposure to elevated temperatures is included via a simple thermal damage model. The model's performance is illustrated on several benchmark problems under both transient and steady state heating conditions. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
