Figure 1.1-a: Uniaxial Test Geometry and Boundary Conditions

The boundary conditions adopted ensure a homogeneous deformation in the element.

1.2. Material properties#

Elastic behavior:

\(E\mathrm{=}300000\mathit{MPa}\); \(\nu \mathrm{=}\mathrm{0,3}\)

Damaging behavior:

\({\sigma }_{Y}\mathrm{=}3\mathit{Mpa}\); \({E}_{T}\mathrm{=}\mathrm{-}6000\mathit{MPa}\)
