Fracture analysis of concrete gravity dam under earthquake induced loads

Fracture analysis of concrete gravity dam under earthquake induced loads

In this paper, seismic fracture behavior of the concrete gravity dam using finite element (2D) theory has been studied. Bazant model which is non-linear fracture mechanics criteria as a measure of growth and smeared crack was chosen to develop profiles of the crack. Behavior of stress - strain curve...
