The possibility of embedding strong discontinuities into finite elements allowed the simulation of different problems, namely, brickwork masonry fracture, dynamic fracture, failure in finite strain problems and simulation of reinforcement concrete members. However, despite the significant contributions to this field, a general embedded formulation capable of dealing with strong discontinuities using conforming ...
A kinematically consistent approach for embedded discontinuities
Comunicação apresentada em International Symposium Polymers in Concrete (ISPIC 2006), Guimarães, 2006 ; In this paper, the finite element method is used to analyse the behaviour of concrete externally strengthened by fibre reinforced polymers (FRP). This model aims to analyse the stress distribution in the FRP-concrete interface at the plate end of a bending beam. The behaviour of the concrete-poxy-FRP arrange...
