Concrete is fractured under the action of a compression wave propagating from the discharge channel between the electrode on the concrete surface and the reinforcement. Disintegration experiments are conducted on pebble concrete. It is shown that a single pulse results in separate cracks in the material on retention of its integrity. Disintegration of concrete and cavitation at the point of application of the electrode begin after the second or third pulse. Computer simulation is made for the action of an expanding discharge channel on reinforced concrete. A structural model of reinforced concrete is plotted, explicitly taking into account its main constituents, namely, cement, stone inclusions, and reinforcement. The inelastic behavior of cement is described within the modified Drucker–Prager–Nikolaevsky model with the nonassociated flow rule for quasi-brittle media. Cracking is simulated using the fracture criterion based on tensile stresses. The performed numerical simulation confirms the conclusions of the physical experiment: a single pulse causes the formation of separate cracks parallel to the free surface, and the network of horizontal, vertical and inclined cracks appears in the cement after 2–3 pulses, resulting in a cavity at the point of application of the electrode. Cavitation in reinforced concrete is governed by the presence of stone inclusions, whose boundaries serve as sites of redistribution of maximum tensile stresses and formation of vertical and inclined cracks, as well as of accumulation of irreversible strains and stresses retained in the cement after the first pulse.</p>","PeriodicalId":726,"journal":{"name":"Physical Mesomechanics","volume":"28 1","pages":"101 - 110"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143396736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A special method of torsion under hydrostatic pressure allows forming a developed deformation relief on the surface of polished specimens. Inspection of the relief points to the formation of shear bands on the surface, which can merge or branch, freely intersect or be arrested by an obstacle, forming a delta of small shear bands. Simulations based on the Morse pair potential made it possible to build a two-dimensional amorphous model and study its deformation at the atomic level. Under loading, material parts are displaced due to the appearance of atomic-scale vortices in the shear band layer by means of free volume, which is a structural feature of amorphous materials. A vortex causes redistribution of stress fields, which, when added to external stresses, are capable of activating similar vortices in the neighboring zones of the material, both in the direction of the applied stresses and along the vortex axis. In the latter case, a vortex tube is formed, which acts by the tornado mechanism. Shear is induced by the tube motion in the direction of principle shear stresses, and traces on the specimen surface are made by its screw component. An increase in the number of vortex tubes and their interaction causes a deformation band. Though playing the role of dislocations, vortex tubes are independent of specific crystalline planes and can move in arbitrary directions. This explains the experimentally observed features of deformation of amorphous alloys.</p>","PeriodicalId":726,"journal":{"name":"Physical Mesomechanics","volume":"27 and Elena V.
