Key Papers
Analytical model for concrete edge failure of multiple row anchorages with supplementary reinforcement
Akanshu Sharma, Jörg Asmus, Rolf Eligehausen
In the accompanying paper, the details and results of the experimental campaign carried out on multiple row anchorages, without and with supplementary reinforcement, loaded in shear towards the edg...
Quasibrittle Fracture Mechanics: An Aperçu of Recent Advances and Fecund Trends (Abstract)
Zdenek Bažant
QUASIBRITTLE FRACTURE MECHANICS: AN APERÇU OF RECENT ADVANCES AND FECUND TRENDS ZDENĚK P. BAŽANT As befits a plenary closing keynote, the presentation begins with a brief overview of historical dev...
Dynamic Fracture of Concrete Compact Tension Specimen: Mesh Sensitivity Study
Daniela Ruta, Josko Ožbolt
It is well known that without a proper regularization scheme the finite element analysis of softening materials leads to mesh dependent response. The results of the analysis should be as less as po...
Induction healing of concrete reinforced by bitumen-coated steel fibres
Erik Schlangen
Cracking in concrete structures compromises the durability and functionality of the structures themselves. Different kinds of self-healing concretes, less or more sophisticated, have been developed...
Transport-structural modelling of corrosion induced cracking of concrete
Peter Grassl
Transport of corrosion products into pores and cracks in concrete must be considered when predicting corrosion induced cracking in reinforced concrete structures, since this transport significantly ...
Multi-Scale Simulation of Structural Concrete Subjected to Seismic and Fatigue Loads Coupled with Drying and Wetting
Koichi Maekawa
The multi-scale thermo-hygral modeling is applied to full-scale RC structural systems under combined long-term ambient and short seismic actions, and experimentally verified in reference to a shaki...
