Unified Formulation for a Triaxial Elastoplastic Constitutive Law for Concrete

A constitutive model to describe the triaxial load-response spectrum of plain concrete in both tension and shear was developed. The inelastic phenomena are described using the plastic flow with direction determined by the gradient of the plastic potential. A new plastic potential is introduced and e...
