The concrete damage plasticity (CDP) model can predict the hysteresis behaviour of RCC structure and it is mostly used in Abaqus FEM software. This CDP model is good for the visualization of plastic deformation/localized crack pattern. It is also good for confirming the peak value of each hysteretic cycle but the basic bond-slip behaviour is not noticeable in the output of the result when the CDP is used. This is why the actual energy dissipation area/boundary is not identifiable in the present state of the CDP model. So considering this issue, a new model like CDP is needed to be adapted where it is applicable.
