Abstract

A 3D combined elastic-plastic damage constitutive model for wood is proposed within the theoretical framework of classical plasticity and continuum damage mechanics (CDM). The model is able to describe the various behavior of wood under loading, including the orthotropic elasticity, strengths inequality under tension and compression in each orthotropic direction, ductile softening under longitudinal compression, brittle failure under transverse tension, and parallel shearing, densification hardening under transverse compression. Hoffman criterion and a set of eight separate failure criteria were used to define wood yielding and damage initiation, respectively. Isotropic hardening was assumed after yielding and defined by an exponential type function. The constitutive model was implicitly discretized using backward Euler method, solved through the return mapping algorithm and implemented into ABAQUS through the user-defined material subroutine (UMAT). The proposed model was firstly verified by material property tests considering different stress states: monotonic and repeated tension and compression (in both parallel and perpendicular-to-grain directions), parallel-to-grain shearing, and the interactions between perpendicular-to-grain compression/tension and parallel-to-grain shearing, etc. Mechanical behavior of typical structural elements was further simulated to validate the proposed constitutive model.
