Finite Element Modelling to Predict the Flexural Behaviour of Ultra-high Performance Concrete Members
This paper presents a finite element (FE) modelling to predict the behaviour of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) members under static flexural loading. A plasticity-based constitutive model for concrete and an implicit solver in LS-DYNA were adopted in the numerical simulation. Experimental data for 21 UHPC specimens tested in the present study and in previous works…
