This paper presents the development of an updated version of PARC_CL 2.0 crack model
implemented in Abaqus Code using subroutine UMAT. for. The PARC_CL 2.0 model is a …

A hybrid concrete wall is made up of a traditional reinforced concrete wall with post-
tensioned technology. Recent research has shown that post-tensioned (PT) reinforced …

Whereas many publications report on alkali aggregate reaction (AAR) expansion or test
analyses, very few address the more pressing issue of its impact on structures. Furthermore …

Corrosion of embedded reinforcement is the main cause of deterioration of existing
reinforced concrete infrastructure. Corrosion can significantly affect the seismic response …

Presented in the paper is the new PARC_CL 2.0 crack model, a physical approach for RC
modelling especially tailored to shear sensitive structures. The model is then applied for the …

There are limited studies about the effect of biaxial shear in reinforced concrete (RC)
elements. However, this load condition is quite common in columns subjected to horizontal …

This paper investigates the structural response of log walls commonly employed in log
construction. Finite element models are validated with experimental work for predicting the …

This paper experimentally and analytically investigated the damage and seismic behavior of
concrete walls reinforced by low-bond ultra-high-strength (LBUHS) bars. To this end, four …

In this paper, the behaviour of RC slab strips subjected to transverse loads and axial tensile
forces is investigated by means of analytical and numerical simulations. The results …

Shear walls have been conferred as a major lateral load resisting element in a building in
any seismic prone zone. It is essential to determine behavior of shear wall in the preelastic …
