This paper presents the finite element analysis (FEA) of reinforced concrete wide beam-
column connections using the theoretical context of the concrete damaged plasticity (CDP) …

Reinforced concrete (RC) beam-column connections especially those without transverse
reinforcement in joint region can exhibit brittle behavior when intensive damage is …

The so-called concrete damaged plasticity (CDP) model is frequently employed by ABAQUS
users to simulate the behaviour of concrete. One important aspect of the model, namely the …

The current research aims to study the behavior of thin reinforced concrete (RC) slabs under
concentrated loads as well as to investigate the application of Critical Shear Crack Theory …

This study was carried out to assess the punching shear behavior of flat slabs considering
the use of various column shapes such as L, T, and Cruciform as support. The flat slab floor …

Previous studies on steel frames cannot consider the effect of concrete slabs on the collapse
behavior of structures, while recent experimental studies on steel-concrete composite …

Finite-element analyses (FEA) of reinforced concrete slab-column connections with shear
reinforcement are presented and discussed. Ultimate loads and crack patterns are shown …

The transverse reinforcement of reinforced concrete deep beams is vulnerable to corrosion
under harsh environments leading to shear-deficient beams. The use of steel fibers in the …

This paper examines the experimental performance of ultra-high-performance steel fibre-
reinforced concrete (UHPSFRC) beams subjected to loads at relatively low shear span-to …

The paper is focused on the calibration of non-linear 3D finite element (FE) analyses to
simulate punching failure of R/C flat slabs. The calibration procedure is developed with …
