    Simulation of cracking and failure of concrete structures
    (1990) Cervenka, Vladimir; Eligehausen, Rolf
    The computer simulation of the cracking process in concrete structures is performed by means of the program system SBETA. The program is based on nonlinear hypo-elastic constitutive model, which covers all important, experimentally derived material properties, namely, cracking, nonlinear stress-strain law in compression, softenning in compression and tension, biaxial failure function, etc. The nonlinear fracture mechanics is included by means of the fictitious crack model and smeared crack approach. Two examples of computer simulation of concrete fracture are shown. In the first example, the failure mode of a pull-out test is presented. In the second example, the process of the crack development and shear failure of a reinforced concrete beam is simulated.

    Computer simulation of anchoring technique in reinforced concrete beams
    (1990) Cervenka, Vladimir; Pukl, Radomir; Eligehausen, Rolf
    The load transfer in reinforced concrete structures by means of anchoring elements is very common in modern concrete technology. Anchoring elements are often inserted in the bottom surface of a structure and the load is transfered by tensile action of the concrete. In case of shear failure, the anchores are located in the most exposed tensile zone of beams. The shear failure can be thus influenced by anchoring elements. This effect was analysed by means of the finite element program SBETA, which is based on the nonlinear-elastic constitutive model. The comparison with experiments for several loading configurations was made. In the second part a computer simulation of similar experiments was conducted.

    Computer simulation: splitting tests of concrete thick-walled rings
    (1992) Pukl, Radomir; Schlottke, Bernd; Ozbolt, Josko; Eligehausen, Rolf
    Two non-linear program systems are used for a computer simulation of splitting failure of thick-walled concrete rings under internal radial pressure. Results of the numerical analyses for plane stress models, axisymmetrical model and 3D model are compared with available experimental data and empirical formulas. It is shown, that the behavior observed in experiments can be simulated, using advanced material models, namely the non local microplane model and SBETA material model based on the crack hand theory. With increasing outer radius of the ring, a size effect can be observed.

    Size effect of the concrete cone failure load of anchor bolts
    (1992) Eligehausen, Rolf; Bouska, Petr; Cervenka, Vladimir; Pukl, Radomir
    The concrete cone capacity of headed anchor bolts subjected to axial tension load was experimentally investigated using 35 concrete specimens of three different sizes. The dimensions of the test specimens were varied in proportion to the embedment depth h (h = 50, 150 and 450 mm). Material properties were measured on accompanying specimens. The measured failure loads are compared with other experimental and numerical investigations. According to the present results the failure loads increase in proportion to h 16, that means close to the prediction by linear fracture mechanics.

    Rationale of detailing provisions in MC 78 and identification of missing items
    (1986) Eligehausen, Rolf
    The quality of a structure depends significantly on the quality of the detailing of the reinforcement. If failures occur, they are often caused by poor detailing, but rarely by incorrect structural analysis. Therefore the MC 78 pays close attention to this subject. The corresponding provisions are given in Section 17 and 18 of the Model Code.

    Post-processing tools for nonlinear fe analysis of concrete structures
    (1990) Cervenka, Vladimir; Pukl, Radomir; Eligehausen, Rolf
    Finite clement analysis of the cracking process in concrete structures brings new requirements for the post-processing environment. Crack direction and location are important for identification of the failure mode. The problem have been solved in the finite element program SBETA which was developed by the authors for simulation of the failure processes in reinforced concrete structures. The post-processing system creates the graphical images of crack patterns. Graphical sequences for simulation can be generated.

    Analytical model for deformed bar bond under generalized excitations
    (1981) Ciampi, Vincenzo; Eligehausen, Rolf; Bertero, Vitelmo V.; Popov, Egor P.
    Ein mathematisches Modell zur Berechnung des Verhaltens eines Rippenstabes, verankert in eng verbügeltem Beton und beansprucht durch beliebige zyklische Belastungen hoher Intensität wird erläutert. Es umfasst die Formulierung eines vereinfachten Modells für die Beziehung zwischen örtlicher Verbundspannung und örtlichem Schlupf, das aus umfangreichen, in Berkeley durchgeführten Versuchen abgeleitet wurde; die Benutzung eines einfachen, jedoch ausreichend genauen Modells für das Spannungs-Dehnungs Gesetz des Bewehrungsstahles und die numerische Lösung der Differentialgleichung des Verbundes. Ein Beispiel ist dargestellt und erläutert.

    Numerical analysis of headed studs embedded in large plain concrete blocks
    (1990) Ozbolt, Josko; Eligehausen, Rolf
    Anchoring elements such as headed studs, expansion, grouted or undercut anchors are used for local transfer of loads into concrete members. Parameter study of the behavior of headed stud anchors with embedment depth h v= 130 mm and failing by pulling out a concrete cone, is performed through numerical analysis. Compression and tension strength, fracture energy and the head diameter are varied. Numerical analysis is performed using nonlocal microplane model and axisymmetric finite elements. Results of the analysis are compared with experimental results.
