In this paper, a new methodology based on the Hill–Mandel lemma in an FE² sense is proposed that is able to deal with localized deformations. This is achieved by decomposing the displacement field of the fine scale model into a homogeneous part, fluctuations, and a
cracking part based on additional degrees of freedom (X¹)—the crack opening in normal and tangential directions. Based on this decomposition, the Hill–Mandel lemma is extended to relate coarse and fine scale energies using the assumption of separation of scales such
that the fine scale model is not required to have the same size as the corresponding
macroscopic integration point. In addition, a procedure is introduced to mimic periodic
boundary conditions in the linear elastic range by adding additional shape functions for the boundary nodes that represent the difference between periodic boundary conditions and pure displacement boundary conditions due to the same macroscopic strain. In order to decrease the computational effort, an adaptive strategy is proposed allowing different
macroscopic integration points to be resolved in different levels on the fine scale.
Constitutive modeling of creep-fatigue interaction for normal strength concrete under compression
(2015)
Conventional approaches to model fatigue failure are based on a characterization of the lifetime as a function of the loading amplitude. The Wöhler diagram in combination with a linear damage accumulation assumption predicts the lifetime for different loading regimes. Using this phenomenological approach, the evolution of damage and inelastic strains and a redistribution of stresses cannot be modeled. The gradual degration of the material is assumed to not alter the stress state. Using the Palmgren–Miner rule for damage accumulation, order effects resulting from the non-linear response are generally neglected.
In this work, a constitutive model for concrete using continuum damage mechanics is developed. The model includes rate-dependent effects and realistically reproduces gradual performance degradation of normal strength concrete under compressive static, creep and cyclic loading in a unified framework. The damage evolution is driven by inelastic deformations and captures strain rate effects observed experimentally. Implementation details are discussed. Finally, the model is validated by comparing simulation and experimental data for creep, fatigue and triaxial compression.
The problem of polydisperse sphere packings is applied to concrete mesoscale geometries in finite sized specimens. Realistic sphere diameter distributions are derived from concrete grading curves. An event-driven molecular dynamics simulation using growing particles is introduced. Compared to the widely used random sequential addition algorithm, it reaches denser aggregate packings and saves computation time at high volume fractions.
A minimal distance between particles strongly influences the maximum aggregate content. It is essential to obtain undistorted elements when meshing the geometry for finite element simulations. The algorithm maximizes this value and produces meshable concrete mesostructures with more than 70% aggregate content.
Numerical simulation of ultrasonic wave propagation using higher order methods in space and time
(2015)
The paper discusses the efficient simulation of ultrasonic wave propagation.
It is demonstrated that a combination of higher methods in space and time leads to a significant performance boost. Higher order spectral elements are used for the spatial
discretization. A comparison with standard finite elements shows the advantages when using explicit time integration schemes. For the temporal discretization, an efficient explicit fourth order Nyström method is presented. Its computational efficiency for wave propagation problems is compared to a second order Velocity Verlet integration.

Concrete is one of the most attractive building materials consumed by humans more than any other material, except water. The particular importance of concrete for a sustainable, energy-efficient economy is highlighted by the fact that about 5% of worldwide CO2 emissions are created from the cement industry.
Concrete is a very complex material. Its properties are time dependent, which includes the solidification after casting or creep and shrinkage. In addition, concrete is a quasi-brittle material which requires to model the softening behavior including the challenge of appropriate regularization strategies. Many characteristic features are strongly related to its complex heterogeneous structure, including particles and mortar on the mesoscale or the CSH-phases on the micro scale.
At first, a short introduction to the generation of mesoscale geometries as a three phase composite including particles, mortar matrix and the interfacial transition zone is given. Afterwards, the numerical model including meshing (XFEM and aligned meshes) as well as regularized material models for the mortar phase are presented.
The focus of the presentation is the discussion of multiscale approaches to combine mesoscale models with realistic macroscale models. This includes a concurrent approach using an adaptive transition between mesoscale and macroscale models which are coupled using the mortar method. A second hierarchical approach is based on the concept of FE², which is extended to incorporate softening by solving a fine scale boundary value problem for each macroscopic integration point.
