Concrete02 Material -- Linear Tension Softening

This command is used to construct a uniaxial concrete material object with tensile strength and linear tension softening. This is a Fedeas Material and the source code may not be available, yet.

uniaxialMaterial Concrete02 $matTag $fpc $epsc0 $fpcu $epscu $lambda $ft $Ets

$matTag

unique material object integer tag

$fpc

compressive strength*

$epsc0

strain at compressive strength*

$fpcu

crushing strength*

$epsU

strain at crushing strength*

$lambda

ratio between unloading slope at $epscu and initial slope

$ft

tensile strength

$Ets

tension softening stiffness (absolute value) (slope of the linear tension softening branch)

*NOTE: Compressive concrete parameters should be input as negative values.

The initial slope for this model is (2*$fpc/$epsc0)
