Ask for parameters in medelling crack propagation in concrete dam with ABAQUS

Submitted by hanglin ye on

Hello every one.

I need your help. I am now learning ABAQUS, doing some practice with crack propagation. The example I am doing now is a gravity dam. I sincerely want to know some material parameters with concrete damage, for example, the Normal Mode Fracture Energy, Shear Mode Fracture Energy 1st direction and 2nd direction, etc. If anyone could provide them to me ,or recommand some books that share such parameters, I would be much appreaciated.

 

I am waiting for your help.

 

Thanks.
