Three-dimensional numerical simulation and cracking analysis of fiber-reinforced cement-based composites
Jun Huang and Peiyan Huang

 
Abstract
    Three-dimensional graphic objects created by MATLAB are exported to the AUTOCAD program through the MATLAB handle functions. The imported SAT format files are used to produce the finite element mesh for MSC.PATRAN. Based on the Monte-Carlo random sample principle, the material heterogeneity of cement composites with randomly distributed fibers is described by the WEIBULL distribution function. In this paper, a concept called
 
Key Words
    fiber-reinforced cement composites; stress-strain behavior; interfacial transition zone; finite element analysis (FEA); multi-scale modeling.
