Abstract:

The topic of this paper is the description of different approaches to numerical simulation of prestressed concrete in computational system ANSYS 14.5. Due to increasing popularity of the numerical simulations, the paper aims to divide and describe simple methods and related aspects of modeling prestress on the finite element level. The paper contains three main part: the analytical solution, the numerical solution and the final comparison of the results. The obtained numerical results proved applicability of FEA for solving problems of prestressed concrete elements.
