Mathematical model for the reinforced concrete with nonlinearity behaviour of bond

Abstract

The article developed a mathematical model describing the deformation of reinforced concrete, taking into account its adhesion to reinforcement. The model consists of three layers: concrete, contact layer, reinforcement. The contact layer surrounding the reinforcement takes into account the complex deformation of the concrete when interacting with the profiled reinforcement. Arguments are presented for criteria that determine the transition of concrete, reinforcement and contact layer to limit states. A diagram of testing of reinforced concrete specimen has been proposed and a procedure for processing experimental data, which allow you to determine the bond parameters. Equations that bind the mechanical characteristics of the contact layer with two the bond parameters of concrete with reinforcement are obtained. The developed model was used in the numerical solution of the problem of static pull-out of reinforcement from concrete. The calculation of the finite element method showed a good correspondence with the experimental data, including during plastic deformation of the reinforcement. This shows the correctness of theoretical provisions and developed mathematical algorithms used to model the deformation of reinforced concrete.
