| Research Abstract |
A coupled RBSM(Rigid-Body-Spring Model)-FEM model has been developed for evaluation of failure mechanism of confined concrete under uniaxial compression. In the proposed model, the RBSM is applied meso-scale constitutive models, and the steel reinforcing material for lateral confinement is modeled by a series of beam and shell elements. By comparing numerical results with the empirical formulas or the experimental results, it is confirmed that the proposed model can reasonably evaluate the compression response of confined concrete specimens. In addition, a parametric study of the influence of specimen size was conducted with the proposed model in order to discuss the mechanism of the size dependence.
