How to use the concrete damaged plasticity model?

Hi All,

Does any one know how to fully use the CDP model and how to evaluate and what to enter for the data? Such as dilation angle, fb0/fc0, K, etc. Also, what exactly is required to be entered under the "Compressive Behaviour" and "Tensile Behaviour" tabs in the CDP model?

For your information - I am modelling an exact same reinforced geopolymer concrete beam, which was tested experimentally. The data I have at my disposal is the compressive strength value,tensile reinforcement ratio and arrangement, and a table of test data which displayed the total loads applied to the beam until failure and the corresponding deflections.

Any help or relevant information would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
