A Strain model for uPVC tube-confined concrete

The brittle response of concrete largely influences concrete deformation under axial load in the post-peak descending branch of the stress-strain curve. In this study, unplasticized polyvinyl chloride (uPVC) plastic tube used to confine concrete cylinders and improve the post-peak performance of spe...
