10 Questions
What is the aim of the book?
To present a unified approach for the mathematical models of concrete and link them to finite element analysis and a computer program.
What are some of the factors considered in the concrete constitutive models?
Creep, temperature, shrinkage, and concrete plasticity, cracking, and crushing with and without concrete aggregate interlocking.
How is the book divided into parts?
Part I reviews existing data on concrete theories, effects of temperature, creep, and fatigue. Part II covers numerical modelling of concrete. Part III is devoted to solving problems on concrete structures subject to static and dynamic loads.
What are the case studies in the book focused on?
The case studies are selected from various areas of civil engineering and include structures subject to static and dynamic loads.
What is the main focus of Part II of the book?
Part II focuses on numerical modelling of concrete and includes extensive tables, computer outlines, and appendices.
