Finite element modeling of crack propagation in RC beam by using energy approach
In present study interface element with nonlinear spring is used to simulate cohesive zone model (CZM) in reinforced concrete beam in Mod I of crack propagation. Modified crack closure integral method is implemented to model propagation of fracture process zone (FPZ). This model, energy can calcul...
