Abstract
A coupled elastoplastic-damage constitutive model taking into account chemo-induced elastoplastic-damage effects for the modeling of coupled chemo-thermo-hygro-mechanical behavior of concretes at high temperature is proposed in this article. A three-step operator split algorithm for the integration of the rate coupled constitutive equations is developed. Consistent tangent modulus matrices for coupled chemo-thermo-hygro-mechanical analysis are derived to preserve the quadratic rate of convergence of the global Newton iterative procedure. Numerical results demonstrate the validity of the presented algorithm and illustrate the capability of the proposed constitutive model in reproducing coupled chemo-thermo-hygro-mechanical behavior in concretes subjected to fire and thermal radiation.
