Elongating plastic hinge element for nonlinear analysis of RC structures using OPENSEES
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2023-04-19)
During inelastic cyclic loading, the length of plastic hinges in reinforced concrete (RC) members increases irreversibly which significantly affects the seismic performance of RC structures. It is hence necessary for ...
Development, verification, and validation of a buckling-fatigue steel material model
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2023-04-19)
Currently, there are limited constitutive models available in finite element analysis packages that reliably capture the coupled effects of bar buckling and fatigue. However, such a model is needed for reliable estimation ...
