그 동안 많은 연구자들은 콘크리트의 응력-변형률 관계의 비선형 거동을 적절한 수식으로 나타내기 위해 많은 노력을 해 왔다. 그러나 이 응력-변형률 관계에 대한 대부분의 경험식은 경화된 콘크리트에 촛점을 맞추어 왔으며, 초기재령에서의 콘크리트의 거동을 잘 나타내지 못하였다. 여기서 초기재령에서 경화시까지 걸친 전 콘크리트의 재령에 대한 폭 넓은 이해는 콘크리트구조물의 내구성과 잔존수명을 평가하는데 있어서 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 5가지의 강도수준과 12시간에서 28일까지의 재령에 대하여 응력-변형률 관계를 검토하였으며, 20$\pm$3$^{\circ}C$ 에서 수중양생된 ø100$\times$200mm의 원주공시체에 대하여 1축압축강도실험을 수행했다. 실험결과에 대한 회귀분석을 수행하여 강도와 재령에 따른 응력-변형률 관계의 모델식을 제시하였으며, 제시된 모델식의 검증을 위하여 실험결과와 기존의 실험결과와 모델식에 대한 해석적 검토도 수행하였다. 해석결과, 제시된 모델식이 실험결과와 잘 맞으며 응력-변형률 관계에 강도와 재령이 미치는 영향을 잘 나타내고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

횡구속된 고강도 콘크리트의 역학적 거동을 예측하기 위해 보통강도 콘크리트의 구성모델을 적용할 경우 연성 거동이 과대평가된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 콘크리트 강도가 증가함에 따라 구속효과에 미치는 영향을 고찰하여 고강도 콘크리트에 적용 가능한 정확한 응력-변형률 관계가 요구된다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 횡구속된 고강도 콘크리트의 강도와 연성 거동에 양향을 미치는 변수들의 회귀분석을 통한 변수별 회귀식을 바탕으로 새로운 횡구속된 고강도 콘크리트의 구성모델이 제안된다. 횡구속된 고강도 콘크리트의 강도 및 초기강성을 나타내는 응력-변형률 곡선의 상승부는 제안된 구성모델과 잘 일치하였고 연성 거동을 나타내는 하강부 곡선은 원형 단면을 가지는 낮은 횡구속 철근의 항복강도 및 철근비일 때 과대평가되었다. 콘크리트 강도를 주요 변수로 하는 제안된 구성모델은 문헌분석을 통한 25개의 횡구속된 고강도 콘크리트 기둥의 실험적 연구와 비교 분석한 결과 콘크리트 압축강도 60~124 MPa 범위에서의 응력-변형률 곡선과 잘 일치되었다.

Direct tensile tests were carried out for the tensile members of steel-reinforced polymer concrete with different steel diameters and steel ratios to figure out the effect of tensile strength of polymer concrete. In the experiments, polymer concrete with $1000kgf/cm^2$ of compressive strength, steel with $5200kgf/cm^2$ of tensile strength, and the tensile members with 100 cm of constant length were used. Experimental results showed that, regardless of steel diameters and steel content, the strain energy exerted by concrete till the initial crack was 14-15% of the total energy till the point of yield: The energy was much larger than the one of high-strength cement concrete. The behaviors of tensile members of steel-reinforced polymer concrete were in relatively good agreement with the model suggested by Gupta-Maestrini (1990), which was idealized by the effective tensile stress-strain relationship of concrete and the load-strain relationship of members, while those showed a big difference from CEB-FIP model and ACI-224 equation suggested for the load-displacement relationship that was defined as the cross sectional stiffness of effective axis. Modified ACI-224 model code about the load-displacement relationship for the tensile members of steel-reinforced polymer concrete and theoretical equation for the polymer concrete tensile stiffness of polymer concrete suggested through the results of this study are expected to be used in an accurate structural analysis and design for the polymer concrete structural members.

Based on the three reinforced concrete panel tests, a softened stress-strain curve of concrete subjected to reversed cyclic loading is proposed. The proposed model consists of seven stages in the compressive zones and six stages in the tensile zones. The proposed model is verified by comparing to the test results.

The concrete stiffness matrices of membrane elements used in the finite element analysis of wall-type structures are reviewed and discussed. The behavior of cracked reinforced concrete membrane elements is first described by summarizing the constitutive laws of concrete and steel established for the two softened truss models (the rotating-angle softened-truss model and the fixed-angle softened-truss model). These constitutive laws are then related to the concrete stiffness matrices of the two existing cracking models (the rotating-crack model and the fixed-crack model). In view of the weakness in the existing models, a general model of the matrix is proposed. This general matrix includes two Poisson ratios which are not clearly understood at present. It is proposed that all five material properties in the general matrix should be established by new biaxial tests of panels using proportional loading and strain-control procedures.

Internal curing, a widely used method for mitigating early-age shrinkage in concrete, also offers notable advantages for concrete durability. This paper explores the potential of internal curing by partial replacement of sand with fine lightweight aggregate for enhancing the behavior of high-performance concrete at elevated temperatures. Such a technique may prove economical and safe for the construction of skyscrapers, where explosive spalling of high-performance concrete in fire is a potential hazard. To reach this aim, the physico-mechanical features of internally cured high-strength concrete specimens, including mass loss, compressive strength, strain at peak stress, modulus of elasticity, stress-strain curve, toughness, and flexural strength, were investigated under different temperature exposures; and to predict some of these mechanical properties, a number of equations were proposed. Based on the experimental results, an advanced stress-strain model was proposed for internally cured high-performance concrete at different temperature levels, the results of which agreed well with the test data. It was observed that the replacement of 10% of sand with pre-wetted fine lightweight expanded clay aggregate (LECA) not only did not reduce the compressive strength at ambient temperature, but also prevented explosive spalling and could retain 20% of its ambient compressive strength after heating up to 800℃. It was then concluded that internal curing is an excellent method to enhance the performance of high-strength concrete at elevated temperatures.

The aim of this paper is to develop design-oriented models for the prediction of the ultimate strength and ultimate axial strain for concrete confined with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) wraps. Twenty of most used and recent design-oriented models developed to predict the strength and strain of GFRP-confined concrete in circular sections are selected and evaluated basing on a database of 163 test results of concrete cylinders confined with GFRP wraps subjected to uniaxial compression. The evaluation of these models is performed using three statistical indices namely the coefficient of the determination (R²), the root mean square error (RMSE), and the average absolute error (AAE). Based on this study, new strength and strain models for GFRP-wrapped concrete are developed using regression analysis. The obtained results show that the proposed models exhibit better performance and provide accurate predictions over the existing models.

The creep strain of the compression zone of concrete beams subjected to cyclic loading should be a significant factor in increasing strain and deflections. An analytical model which is similar to a previous one is presented to predict the increase in cyclic creep strain and the damage using the properties of the constituent materials: concrete and steel. The analytical expressions are compared with our experimental data. The effect of concrete-creep is accounted by the term En, Icr,n, and Mcr,n. In this study, it is proved that cyclic creep exponents 'n' in Cyclic Creep Model, according to the parameters -strength, range of stress- have the various values. It is hoped that with the availability of more experimental data and better understanding of some of the complex behavior, the model could be further improved.

The fracture energy evaluated from the previous experimental results can be simulated by using the modified singular fracture process zone (S-FPZ) model. The fracture model has two fracture properties of strain energy release rate for crack extension and crack close stress versus crack width relationship $f_{ccs}(w)$ for fracture process zone (FPZ) development. The $f_{ccs}(w)$ relationship is not sensitive to specimen geometry and crack velocity. The fracture energy rate in the FPZ increases linearly with crack extension until the FPZ is fully developed. The fracture criterion of the strain energy release rate depends on specimen geometry and crack velocity as a function of crack extension. The behaviors of micro-cracking, micro-crack localization and full development of the FPZ in concrete can be explained theoretically with the variation of strain energy release rate with crack extension.

Since quasi-brittle material like concrete shows strain localization behavior accompanied by strain softening, a numerical drawback such as mesh sensitivity is appeared in the finite element analysis. In this study, a homogenized crack model which overcomes the drawback and considers rate discontinuity in the constitutive equation is proposed for modeling of cracking in concrete and its propagation in strain softening regime. Then, a series of finite element analysis of the concrete under various loading conditions has been performed. From comparison of analysis results with experimental data, it is shown that failure behavior due to localized cracking of concrete under both compressive loading condition and tensile loading condition is well predicted by the homogenized crack model.
