Prototype

odb_ConcreteTensionStiffening&
ConcreteTensionStiffening(const odb_SequenceSequenceDouble& table,
                          bool rate,
                          const odb_String& type,
                          bool temperatureDependency,
                          int dependencies);

Required arguments

table: An odb_SequenceSequenceDouble specifying the items described below.

Optional arguments

rate

A Boolean specifying whether the data depend on rate. The default value is false.

type

An odb_String specifying the type of postcracking behavior data. Possible values are:

"STRAIN", specifying postfailure stress as a function of cracking strain.
"DISPLACEMENT", specifying postfailure stress as a function of cracking displacement.
"GFI", specifying failure stress as a function of the fracture energy.

The default value is "STRAIN".

temperatureDependency

A Boolean specifying whether the data depend on temperature. The default value is false.

dependencies

An Int specifying the number of field variable dependencies. The default value is 0.

Table data

If type=STRAIN, the table data specify the following:

Remaining direct stress after cracking, $σ_{t}$ .
Direct cracking strain, $ϵ_{t}^{c k}$ .
Direct cracking strain rate, ${\dot{ϵ}}_{t}^{c k}$ .
Temperature, if the data depend on temperature.
Value of the first field variable, if the data depend on field variables.
Value of the second field variable.
Etc.

If type=DISPLACEMENT, the table data specify the following:

Remaining direct stress after cracking, $σ_{t}$ .
Direct cracking displacement, $u_{t}^{c k}$ .
Direct cracking displacement rate, ${\dot{u}}_{t}^{c k}$ .
Temperature, if the data depend on temperature.
Value of the first field variable, if the data depend on field variables.
Value of the second field variable.
Etc.

If type=GFI, the table data specify the following:

Failure stress, $σ_{t 0}$ .
Fracture energy, $G_{f}$ .
Direct cracking displacement rate, ${\dot{u}}_{t}^{c k}$ .
Temperature, if the data depend on temperature.
Value of the first field variable, if the data depend on field variables.
Value of the second field variable.
Etc.

Return value

A ConcreteTensionStiffening object.

Exceptions

RangeError.
