Comparative study of various smeared crack models for concrete dams
The nonlinear seismic response of concrete gravity dams is investigated in the paper. Nonlinear fracture mechanics based on three smeared crack models is used for comparative study of the cracking profile and dam response. Using the finite element method, the dynamic equation is solved by means of t...
