The following is from Jim Kennedy:

would like to share some documentation for the concrete

material models MAT_016, MAT_072, MAT_084, and MAT_096 I
recently had gathered.

This list is not all inclusive; just a list I had made.

GENERAL

Malvar, L.J., D. Simons, "Concrete Material Modeling in Explicit

Computations," Workshop on Recent Advances in Computational Structural
Dynamics and High Performance Computing, USAE Waterways Experiment
Station, April 24-26, 1996.

(http://ftp.lstc.com/anonymous/outgoing/support/FAQ_kw/concrete/concrete.CP27_WES96
K.pdf)

A concrete impact analysis review paper I came across:

Murthy, A.R.C., Palani, G.S., and Iyer, N.R., "Impact Analysis of Concrete
Structural Components", Defense Science Journal, Vol. 60, No. 3, pp. 307-319,
May, 2010.
http://publications.drdo.gov.in/gsdl/collect/defences/index/assoc/HASH01a3/bafc6079
.dir/doc.pdf

MAT_016

I believe the following paper provides the basis for MAT_016

 Pseudo_Tensor model:

Burton, D.E., Lettis, L.A., Bryan, J.B., and Frary. N.R.,

"Physics and Numerics of the Tensor Code," Lawrence Livermore
National Laboratory, Internal Document, UCID-19428, July ,1982.

MAT_072

I believe the following paper provides the basis for MAT_072

Concrete_Damage model:

Malvar, L.J., J.E. Crawford, J.W. Wesevich, and D. Simons,

"A Plasticity Concrete Material Model for DYNA3D,"
International Journal of Impact Engineering, Volume 19,
Numbers 9-10, pages 847-873, 1997.
[From the mat_072 source code comments... "This material nodel is based on the
work Malvar, Crawford and Wesevich. See Defense Nuclear Agency
report DNA001-91-C-0059."]

The following paper is a very recent update to MAT_072:

Schwer, L.E., and Malvar, L.J., "Simplified Concrete Modeling

with *MAT_CONCRETE_DAMAGE_REL3," 4th German LS-DYNA Forum,
Bamberg, Germany, October, 2005.
(http://ftp.lstc.com/anonymous/outgoing/support/FAQ_kw/concrete/mat_072r3.pdf or
http://www.dynamore.de/download/af05/papers/H-I-49.pdf)

You also might find the following paper of interest which

uses both MAT_016 and MAT_072:

Yonten, K., Manzari, M.T., Eskandarian, A., and Marzougui, D.,

"An Evaluation of Constitutive Models of Concrete in LS-DYNA
Finite Element Code," 15th ASCE Engineering Mechanics
Conference, New York, June, 2002.

http://www.civil.columbia.edu/em2002/proceedings/papers/196.pdf

I believe the reinforcement model for MAT_072 is the same as

that for MAT_016 which is briefly described on page 20.72 of
the LS-DYNA Version 970 User's Manual.

MAT_084

I believe the following papers provide the basis for MAT_084

Winfrith_Concrete model. The last two are available in
http://ftp.lstc.com/anonymous/outgoing/support/FAQ_kw/concrete (see
Winfrith*.pdf)

Ottosen, N.S., "A Failure Criterion for Concrete," Journal of

the Engineering Mechanics Division, Volume. 103, Number 4,
pages 527-535, July/August, 1977.

Broadhouse, B.J., "DRASTIC - A Computer Code for Dynamic

Anaylsis of Stress Transients in Reinforced Concrete," Safety
and Engineering Science Division, United Kingdom Atomic Energy
Authority, Winfrith, AEEW-R 2124, 1986.
 Broadhouse, B.J. and Neilson, A.J., "Modelling Reinforced
Concrete Structures in DYNA3D," Safety and Engineering Science
Division, United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority, Winfrith,
AEEW-M 2465, October, 1987. Paper presented at DYNA3D User
Group Conference, London, September, 1987.

Broadhouse, B.J., "The Winfrith Concrete Model in LS-DYNA3D,"

Safety Performance Department, Atomic Energy Authority
Technology, Winfrith, SPD/D(95)363, February, 1995.

A recent paper using the reinforced option:

Algaard, W., Lyle, J. and Izatt, C., "Perforation of Composite

Floors," 5th European LS-DYNA User's Conference, Birmingham,
United Kingdom, May, 2005.

http://www.dynalook.com/documents/5th_European_ls-
dyna/Methods_Techniques_I/Algaard.pdf

MAT_096

I believe the following paper provides the basis for MAT_096

Brittle-Damage model:

Govindjee, S., Kay, G.J., and Simo, J.C., "Anisotropic

Modelling and Numerical Simulation of Brittle Damage in
Concrete," International Journal for Numerical Methods in
Engineering, Volume 38, pages 3611-3633, 1995.
