Abstract

The micropolar peridynamic lattice model for the simulation of plain and reinforced concrete structures is described and then demonstrated. It is found that the computational model is simpler than previous computational models for reinforced concrete, and more efficacious than existing computational methods for predicting the strength of reinforced concrete structures.
