Constitutive relations of springs to model and simulate reinforced concrete frames

Constitutive relations of springs to model and simulate reinforced concrete frames

The study aims to propose with constitutive relations of springs that may be utilized in a model of reinforced concrete (RC) buildings using Rigid Body Spring - Discrete Element Method. An investigation of various failure mechanisms of RC beams and columns was done based from literature. The capacit...
