Partial-kinking-of-reinforcement theory
Let us now consider a kinematically permissible
mechanism shown in Figure 1; where the crushing of
concrete due to overstressing in the vicinity of the
kinks in the reinforcement results in a tendency to
straighten out the reinforcement bars. Without enter-
ing into details of the crushing phenomenon involvea,
it appears sufficiently reasonable to describe this prob-
lem by introducing two geometrical parameters which
most conveniently are the two angles y and 1').
This improved yield criterion with "restricted"

In order to obtain more general formulation of
