Creates a material for reinforced matrix material. It combines a matrix material (e.g. concrete) and a reinforcement material (e.g. steel).

==Usage==


# To define reinforced material model do the following:
#* Click the {{Button|[[Image:FEM MaterialReinforced.svg|16px]] [[FEM MaterialReinforced|Reinforced material (concrete)]]}} button or choose the {{MenuCommand|Model → Materials → [[Image:FEM_MaterialReinforced.svg|16px]] Reinforced material (concrete)‏‎}} option from the menu.
# To edit an existing MaterialReinforced object:
#* Click it in the [[Tree_view|Tree view]].
#* Select the matrix material. Optionally, press the {{Button|Edit}} button the edit its properties. The following material properties have to be defined: Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio, compressive strength and angle of friction.
#* Select the reinforcement material. Optionally, press the {{Button|Edit}} button the edit its properties. Yield strength has to be defined.

==Notes==


* In the CalculiX solver settings, one has to set Material Nonlinearity to linear if [[FEM MaterialMechanicalNonlinear]] is not used.
* The background of this feature and an example of its usage can be found in [[Analysis of reinforced concrete with FEM]].

Description

Creates a material for reinforced matrix material. It combines a matrix material (e.g. concrete) and a reinforcement material (e.g. steel).

Usage

  1. To define reinforced material model do the following:
  2. To edit an existing MaterialReinforced object:
    • Click it in the Tree view.
    • Select the matrix material. Optionally, press the Edit button the edit its properties. The following material properties have to be defined: Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio, compressive strength and angle of friction.
    • Select the reinforcement material. Optionally, press the Edit button the edit its properties. Yield strength has to be defined.
