Shear fracture of longitudinally reinforced concrete beams under bending using Digital Image Correlation and FE simulations with concrete micro-structure based on X-ray micro-computed tomography images

Abstract

The paper presents experimental and numerical investigations of the shear fracture in rectangular concrete beams longitudinally reinforced with steel or basalt bar under quasi-static three point bending. Shear fracture process zone formation and development on the surface of beams was investigated by Digital Image Correlation (DIC) whereas thorough analyses of 3D material micro-structure, air voids, width and curvature of shear cracking were carried out by X-ray micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). Moreover, the 2D shear fracture patterns in beams were numerically simulated with the finite element method (FEM) using isotropic coupled elasto-plastic-damage constitutive model for concrete enhanced by a characteristic length of micro-structure. Concrete meso-structure was modelled as a random heterogeneous four-phase material composed of aggregate particles, cement matrix, ITZ zones and air voids on the basis of X-ray micro-CT images. Experimental and numerical results revealed a satisfactory agreement regarding to the mechanism of failure, load-bearing capacity as well as cracking pattern.
