Conducted loading tests of plain concrete specimens are briefly introduced in the paper together with description of the performed numerical simulations of these tests in ATENA 3D software. The simulation results of concrete failure are analysed in detail and compared with the experimental results recording failure processes with the help of acoustic emission. The simulation results are in good agreement with the recorded data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
