Abstract:Abstract. This study presents an application of the peridynamics method to the analysis of concrete structures, the quasi-static fracture behavior of concrete column is simulated with the proposed model, numerical result shows that the proposed peridynamic model can predict both the progressive failure process and the ultimately capacity of concrete structures with reasonable accuracy.
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.
