Samenvatting
The application of glass fibre textile reinforced cementitious composites (GTRC) in doubly-curved shells has numerous advantages over other widely-used materials for free form shapes. In this paper, the suitability of different material models - available in the finite element programs Ansys and Abaqus - for the modelling of glass textile reinforced cementitious composites is evaluated. The use of the concrete smeared crack model in Abaqus for the description of the material response of glass fibre textile reinforced Inorganic Phosphate Cement is validated by means of comparison of a finite element model of a uniaxial and biaxial tension-tension test with experimental results.
