Nonlinear analysis of the progressive collapse of reinforced concrete plane frames using a multilayered beam formulation

This work investigates the response of two reinforced concrete (RC) plane frames after the loss of a column and their potential resistance for progressive collapse. Nonlinear dynamic analysis is performed using a multilayered Euler/Bernoulli beam element, including elasto-viscoplastic effects. The m...
