Concrete elements

A finite element model using a multi-fiber approach is proposed in this paper for the analysis of reinforced concrete (RC) members using fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcements, with a specific focus on the effect of pure torsion. The proposed model is formulated using a displacement-based approach and a kinematic assumption involving a twonode Timoshenko beam.

Ebook "Structural concrete: Finite-element analysis for limit-state design" is a review of available experimental data on the behaviour of concrete at both the material and structural levels reveals the unavoidable development of triaxial stress conditions prior to failure which dictate the collapse and ductility of structural concrete members; moreover - and in contrast with widely-accepted tenets - it can be shown that the post peak-stress behaviour of concrete as a material is realistically described by a complete and immediate loss of load-carrying capacity.

This paper presents a developed three-dimensional (3D) finite element model (FEM) of flexural and shear strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) T-beams using a CFRP (Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymer) system combined by near-surface mounted (NSM) strips and U-wraps subjected by asymmetric loading. The 3D FEM was verified by experimental results.

The purpose of this work is to offer a method for detecting structural damage utilizing the standardized index of the beam's deflection influence line difference as input data for the evaluation procedure. The displacement influence line used in the evaluation is calculated using the findings of the behavior analysis of the reinforced concrete beam's finite element model when subjected to a moving load.

In this paper, the implementation of the PZT interface technique for monitoring strand breakage in a prestressed concrete anchorage zone is presented. First, the fundamental of the PZT interface for impedance monitoring is briefly reviewed. Second, a FE (finite element) analysis of a multi-strand concrete anchorage equipped with an array of PZT interfaces is analyzed to obtain impedance signatures under a series of strand breakage events.
