Abstract: Transverse shear failures of reinforced concrete plates and shells are analyzed using a layered shell element that has been modified to more accurately model shear behavior. The transverse shear stress distribution through ...

Abstract: It is well known that concrete will fail in the form of cracking or crushing for the uniaxial tension or compression. However, it would be difficult to classify and define precisely the failure form for the multiaxial ...

Abstract: The behavior of concrete confined with carbon and glass fiber wraps is determined by uniaxial compression tests of filament wound composite cylinders filled with concrete. Experimental variables include concrete strength, ...
