Abstract
A three-dimensional damage model for concrete has been proposed in the preceding paper, Part I: Theory. This paper focuses on the application of the damage model for quasi-brittle materials such as concrete. The determination of model parameters for the evolution rule of damage is discussed. The model parameters to consider the frictional stress and the stiffness reduction under hydrostatic compression are also studied. For verification, the proposed model is applied to concrete subjected to confined compression, triaxial, loading, and cyclic loading. Consistent results, as compared with other researchers’ experimental data, were obtained, and the proposed model is considered worthy of further research work.
