Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Finite Element Design of Concrete Structures: practical problems and their solutions the author addresses this blind belief in computer results by offering a useful critique that important details are overlooked due to the flood of information from the output of computer calculations. Indeed, errors in the numerical model may lead in extreme cases to structural failures as the collapse of the so-called Sleipner platform has demonstrated.

Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled POST-CRACK AND POST-PEAK BEHAVIOR OF REINFORCED CONCRETE MEMBERS BY NONLINEAR FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS Submitted by Wu Yi for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Hong Kong in September 2006 This thesis investigates the post-crack and post-peak behavior of reinforced concrete members by using finite element analysis. To achieve this, a finite element code with displacement controlled iterative scheme is developed. The finite element code is able to represent the complete load-deflection curve of reinforced concrete member from the initial loading stage till the post-peak stage. Bond-slip interaction between concrete and longitudinal reinforcement is included. To validate the finite element code, experiments of reinforced concrete members with different longitudinal reinforcement, web reinforcement, concrete strength and axial compression are studied. Case studies show that if the bond-slip is neglected in the finite element analysis, the predicted load-deflection curve and crack pattern will give less accuracy. A study of the mesh size-effect of concrete element shows that the mesh should be fine enough in order to give better prediction. By including the bond element and using proper element size, the results show that the proposed finite element code gives a good description of the behavior of reinforced concrete members, including crack patterns and the load-deflection responses. i By using this finite element code, reinforced concrete beams with different concrete grade, steel ratio are studied to investigate the post-crack behavior of reinforced concrete members. The analysis demonstrates that the predicted load will be under-estimated after the concrete has cracked if the tension-stiffening effect is neglected in the section analysis. Based on the results obtained from the finite element analysis, three new concrete stress distribution blocks are proposed. Compared with the current design codes in which the contribution of cracked concrete in tension is simply neglected or other far more complicated methods proposed for the finite element analysis, the tension-stiffening effect can be taken into account in a simple manner in the proposed models for the section analysis of reinforced concrete beams. Several classic reinforced beams are adopted to validate the proposed models. The results show that the proposed models give a good description of the load-deflection behavior of the reinforced concrete members for cracked concrete. In the investigation of the post-peak behavior of reinforced concrete beams, it is found that beyond the ultimate strength, the strain reversal history of longitudinal reinforcement has significant effects on the load-deflection behavior of the member. The predicted load may be over-estimated for an under-reinforced concrete beam when the strain reversal history of longitudinal reinforcement is neglected. It is therefore suggested that the strain history effect should be included for more accurate prediction of the post-peak load-deflection curves of reinforced concrete members. The variation of curvature along the beam length is also investigated. It is shown that the phenomenon of curvature reversal occurs at the post-peak stage for over- reinforced concrete sections in a simply supported beam that is subjected to concen

Book Finite Element Modelling of Reinforced Concrete Beam Using COSMOS M

Download or read book Finite Element Modelling of Reinforced Concrete Beam Using COSMOS M written by Ahmad Ruslan Mohd. Ridzuan and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The linear finite element analysis of a reinforced concrete beam, using cosmos/m, a finite element analysis system is presented. The objective of this study was to find a suitable model to represent the behaviour of a simply supported reinforced concrete beam in flexure.The elements form the cosmos/m element library was utilised to model the beam, they are; (a) the three noded triangular element and (b) 8 node quadrilateral plane stress element, (c) 8 node solid element and (d) the 4 node composite quadrilateral shell element. The main area of investigations include the determination of the midspan displacement as well as the stress and strainvariation in the beam up to failure. Three different material modelling forconcrete was adopted namely : constant E-value throughout, different E-valueand varying E-value for concrete in tension. The performance of the variouseelement were compared and the predicated displacements, stress and strain form the finite element analysis were compared with experimental results of two reinforced concrete beams. Discrete crack was simulated in the finite element model using the 8 node quadrilateral plane stress element and the influence on the predicted results was examined. It can be concluded that from theF.E.A the 8 node quadrilateral plane stress element gave the closest correspondence with the test results and the third material model was found to be most suitable model.
