Effect of the fiber geometry on the pullout response of mechanically deformed steel fibers
2013
Abstract A simple model to predict the influence of fiber geometry on the pullout of mechanically deformed steel fibers from cementitious matrix is proposed. During the pullout the mechanically deformed fiber is subjected to repetitive bending and unbending which cause an increase of the tension in the fiber. This increase of the tension depends on the amount of plastic work needed to straighten the fiber during pullout. The model input parameters are mechanical and geometrical properties of mechanically deformed fibers. Model predictions were compared to the experimental results on the hooked-end and crimped steel fiber pullout and good agreement was observed.
