Book Practitioners  Guide to Finite Element Modelling of Reinforced Concrete Structures

Download or read book Practitioners Guide to Finite Element Modelling of Reinforced Concrete Structures written by fib Fédération internationale du béton and published by fib Fédération internationale du béton. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 3 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Non-linear computer analysis methods have seen remarkable advancement in the last half-century. The state-of-the-art in non-linear finite element analysis of reinforced concrete has progressed to the point where such procedures are close to being practical, every-day tools for design office engineers. Non-linear computer analysis procedures can be used to provide reliable assessments of the strength and integrity of damaged or deteriorated structures, or of structures built to previous codes, standards or practices deemed to be deficient today. They can serve as valuable tools in assessing the expected behaviour from retrofitted structures, or in investigating and rationally selecting amongst various repair alternatives. fib Bulletin 45 provides an overview of current concepts and techniques relating to computer-based finite element modelling of structural concrete. It summarises the basic knowledge required for use of nonlinear analysis methods as applied to practical design, construction and maintenance of concrete structures, and attempts to provide a diverse and balanced portrayal of the current technical knowledge, recognizing that there are often competing and conflicting viewpoints. This report does not give advice on picking one model over another but, rather, provides guidance to designers on how to use existing and future models as tools in design practice, in benchmarking of their models against established and reliable test data and in selecting an appropriate safety factor as well as recognising various pitfalls. fib Bulletin 45 is intended for practicing engineers, and therefore focuses more on practical application and less on the subtleties of constitutive modelling.

Book Modelling and Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Structures for Dynamic Loading

Download or read book Modelling and Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Structures for Dynamic Loading written by Christian Meyer and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-05-04 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive review of the material behavior of concrete under dynamic loads, especially impact and impuls, opens the volume. It is followed by a summary of the various analytical tools available to engineers interested in analyzing the nonlinear behavior of reinforced concrete members for dynamic load. These range from relatively simple and practice-oriented push-over analysis to sophisticated layered finite element models. Important design-related topics are discussed, with special emphasis on performance of concrete frames subjected to seismic loads. The significance of modern software systems is recognized by including extensive examples. For readers not current in dynamic analysis methods, an appendix contains a review of the mathematical methods most commonly used for such analysis.

Book Finite Element Design of Concrete Structures

Download or read book Finite Element Design of Concrete Structures written by Guenter Axel Rombach and published by Thomas Telford. This book was released on 2004 with total page 302 pages. 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.

Book Unified Theory of Concrete Structures

Download or read book Unified Theory of Concrete Structures written by Thomas T. C. Hsu and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-03-16 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unified Theory of Concrete Structures develops an integrated theory that encompasses the various stress states experienced by both RC & PC structures under the various loading conditions of bending, axial load, shear and torsion. Upon synthesis, the new rational theories replace the many empirical formulas currently in use for shear, torsion and membrane stress. The unified theory is divided into six model components: a) the struts-and-ties model, b) the equilibrium (plasticity) truss model, c) the Bernoulli compatibility truss model, d) the Mohr compatibility truss model, e) the softened truss model, and f) the softened membrane model. Hsu presents the six models as rational tools for the solution of the four basic types of stress, focusing on the significance of their intrinsic consistencies and their inter-relationships. Because of its inherent rationality, this unified theory of reinforced concrete can serve as the basis for the formulation of a universal and international design code. Includes an appendix and accompanying website hosting the authors’ finite element program SCS along with instructions and examples Offers comprehensive coverage of content ranging from fundamentals of flexure, shear and torsion all the way to non-linear finite element analysis and design of wall-type structures under earthquake loading. Authored by world-leading experts on torsion and shear

Book Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Structures Subjected to Transient Thermal Loads  microform

Download or read book Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Structures Subjected to Transient Thermal Loads microform written by Cheng En Zhou and published by National Library of Canada = Bibliothèque nationale du Canada. This book was released on 2004 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results obtained from four numerical tests indicate that the proposed computational scheme and the implemented codes are accurate and reliable. The need to incorporate fire loads into reinforced concrete structural design has long been recognized, and the traditional design method for structural fire resistance has been widely practiced by engineers mainly because of its simplicity. To simulate the structure's response to thermal loads, this research develops and implements a 2D nonlinear finite element transient analysis for reinforced concrete structures subjected to high temperatures. The proposed computational scheme takes into account time-varying thermal loads, heat-of-hydration effects, and temperature-dependent material properties. Algorithms for calculating the closed-form element stiffness for a quadrilateral element with a fully-populated material stiffness are also developed. Then, the capability of a 2D nonlinear finite element transient thermal analysis is implemented into program VecTor2(c), a nonlinear analysis program for 2D reinforced concrete membranes.
