I am trying to model a piece of concrete and I need information about how the ottosen concrete model in comsol adopts yield surface, pastic flow and the work hardening; someone has information about this or where to look?

Thanks for all

The Ottosen model does not include any hardening. The expression for the yield surface can be found in the theory section in the Structural Mechanics User's Guide. The flow rule is associated.

Thanks, Henrik, just one more question, the surface of failure coincides with the yield and there can be no tension state outside of it?
