Abstract: A finite-element formulation for the analysis of time-dependent failure of concrete is presented. The proposed formulation incorporates: (1) the viscoelastic behavior of uncracked concrete through a Maxwell chain model; ...

Abstract: Mass timber has gained increasing focus as a sustainable alternative to concrete structures, and recent innovations have allowed timber buildings as high as 25 stories. However, although critical factors such as fire safety ...

Abstract: The mechanical responses of steel fiber–reinforced concrete (SFRC) thermally damaged at high temperature needs a deeper evaluation via a mesoscopic model that explicitly treats the fibers. For this demand, the lattice ...
