Abstract: This paper describes the design of the Fulton Road Bridge segmental concrete arches. The posttensioning concept, superstructure–arch interaction considerations, effective length

Abstract: The hysteretic behavior of reinforced concrete structures depends to a large extent on the hysteretic behavior of reinforcing steel. An accurate and computationally efficient numerical model of reinforcing steel is, thus, ...

Abstract: A three-dimensional (3D) concrete material model for nonlinear finite-element analysis of concrete solids under short-term cyclic loading is presented. The proposed model is a hypoplastic orthotropic model based on a ...
