Abstract:

During the research of local stress distribution of polyline pretensioned beams by 3-D nonlinear finite element method, a problem of curve prestressed reinforcement simulation is discovered. If the line of prestressed reinforcement is curve, the calculated result of local stress distribution is greatly affected by element size, because of the tectonic stress concentration by the coupling between the linear element and body element. Then, the validity and applicability of the model couldn't be judged. To eliminate the harmful effect, the curve prestressed reinforcement is determined to simulate by body element. The result shows that it will solve the problem thoroughly, and the calculated result is truthful and reliable. This research presents a new thought and method about the local stress analysis of the prestressed concrete structure.
