Description
A Powerful Tool for the Analysis and Design of Complex Structural ElementsFinite-Element Modelling of Structural Concrete: Short-Term Static and Dynamic Loading Conditions presents a finite-element model of structural concrete under short-term loading, covering the whole range of short-term loading conditions, from static (monotonic and cyclic) to

"This book provides a comprehensive and reliable treatment of the finite element analysis of reinforced concrete structures on the basis of well-founded material properties adopted on the basis of experimental results after a critical evaluation by the author according to his personal research. The strictness of the approach regarding the effective triaxial concrete behaviour forms a safe basis for the development of the finite element procedure in analyzing various reinforced concrete structures under static and dynamic loading including the seismic design."Leonidas Stavridis, National Technical University of Athens "This book provides a comprehensive and reliable treatment of the finite element analysis of reinforced concrete structures on the basis of well-founded material properties adopted on the basis of experimental results after a critical evaluation by the author according to his personal research.
