This book was released on 2013 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring nonlinear behavior of structures through structural analysis software can be time and computer processing intensive especially with complicated structural models. This paper will explore the nonlinear behavior of a reinforced concrete structure with varying damping conditions that will experience a number of earthquakes at varying intensities. In the effort to produce a more accurate representation of the structural behavior, the building will be designed based on modem design codes. Ultimately, this approach aims to define a range in which engineers can use a linear approximation to determine certain performance metrics like interstory drift and floor accelerations.

Book Synopsis Advanced computationally efficient modeling of RC structures nonlinear cyclic behavior by : Bashar Alfarah
Download or read book Advanced computationally efficient modeling of RC structures nonlinear cyclic behavior written by Bashar Alfarah and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Under severe seismic excitation, structural behavior of buildings and other constructions is highly complex. It involves, among other issues, soil-structure interaction, large strains and displacements, damage, plasticity, and near-collapse behavior. Moreover, in reinforced concrete structures, there are several coupled degradation and failure modes: cracking, crushing and spalling of concrete, yielding and pull-out of tensioned reinforcement, yielding and buckling of compressed reinforcement. Furthermore, another circumstance makes the situation more alarming: given the increasing awareness and concern on the huge worldwide seismic risk, earthquake engineering has experienced in last years substantial advances. New design and analysis strategies have been proposed, leading to relevant developments. These developments rely on extensive testing and numerical simulation mainly based on oversimplified models referred in this work as structural component-based models, as a result of their moderate computational cost. Therefore, there is a strong need of verifying the reliability of the new developments by comparison with analyses performed using more advanced simulation tools and with experiments. This work is organized in two parts. First part presents an accurate model, while the second part deals with a more simplified model, although highly computational efficient. First part. This research clarifies the aforementioned issues by developing a new continuum mechanics-based model for simulating the monotonic and cyclic behavior of reinforced concrete structures. The developed model combines a new methodology for calculating the damage variables in Concrete Plastic Damage Models "CPDM", and a new approach to integrate CPDM with a 3-D interface bond-slip model developed by other researchers. A new scheme to implement the interface model in a continuum FEM model of regions with crossing reinforcement bars is also presented in this research. Mesh-insensitivity, accuracy and reliability of the proposed model are verified by simulating several monotonic and cyclic tests; the obtained results are compared with experimental ones, satisfactory agreement has been accomplished. Second part. The developed model is the First Part is compared with simplified structural component-based models that are commonly used in earthquake engineering; results has shown the superiority of the proposed model to predict the actual behavior of highly damaged RC elements and frames, capturing strength reduction, stiffness degradation and pinching phenomena. However, some of the structural component-based models have shown an acceptable performance considering the law computationally cost in comparison with the advanced continuum mechanics-based model. After this conclusion, this part presents a numerical study on the relation among the non-simulated deterioration modes of the elements in non-ductile RC frames and their final capacity. A structural component-based model has been developed for simulating the nonlinear dynamic behavior of non-ductile reinforced structures, accounting for flexure, shear and axial deterioration modes. The developed model is numerically efficient, thus being suitable for day use in earthquake engineering. The capacity of the developed model is verified by simulating the nonlinear dynamic behavior of an existing non-ductile building and the prototype building. Obtained results shows that the developed model, despite its moderate computational cost, detects and reproduces accurately the nonlinear dynamic behavior of non-ductile RC structures, as well, capturing the deterioration modes that are blind to the simplified models. Comparison with results from more simplified models highlights the importance of hidden failure modes in the behavior of each element and in the overall collapse mechanisms. The relation between the non-simulated failure modes and the so-called "Structural Resurrection" is addressed.

Book excerpt: The design of concrete structures to endure extreme loading conditions from blast or projectile penetration entails the characterization of the material behavior under pertinent conditions and material models that can be used computationally for simulation and analysis. The lack of data and such constitutive models for concrete has posed a significant challenge to structure designers and material engineers. Concrete is a two-phase composite comprising mortar and aggregate. The aggregate serves as reinforcement and upsurges the effective strength and toughness of the overall composite. In recent years, the vibration of cracked structures subjected to dynamic loads has attracted more and more attentions of researchers, and many methods for analyzing the vibration were proposed. Dynamic Behavior of Concrete and Seismic Engineering covers experimental techniques in the study of the dynamic behavior of concrete, examines seismicity and seismic behavior, soil behavior, models of concrete structures subject to seismic activity. This book is intended to estimate the failure mechanism, hysteresis loops, displacement ductility, deterioration of strength and stiffness and energy dissipation of recycled concrete frames under low-reversed cyclic loading as well as the influence of different vertical loading. The nonlinear dynamic behavior of the pre-stressed concrete bridge with such a switching crack subjected to moving trains is investigated. Pre-stressed concrete bridges have found wide applications in railway engineering in recent years. Various studies over the last decade have shown that a structure with such cracks exhibits nonlinear dynamic behavior, and its safety and serviceability are seriously affected. So it is essential to study the vibration of the pre-stressed concrete bridge with such cracks under moving trains. This book is aimed at discovering the dynamic properties of concrete and cement-paste specimens representing the structural material and its adhesive component, and attempts to provide a modest characterization of the physical behavior of these materials on a macroscopic basis.
