Non-Linear FEM Analysis of Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete Shearwall

Abstract:

The numerical simulation by nonfinear finite element method(FEM) was adopted to analyze the behavior and the influences of the fraction of steel fiber by volume fraction and the strength of steel fiber reinforced concrete on the bearing capacity and the ductility of reinforced concrete shearwalls. The results show that with the increase of the fraction of steel fiber by volume fraction, the bearing capacity and ductility coefficient of steel fiber reinforced concrete shearwalls increase gradually. With the increase of the strength of steel fiber reinforced concrete, the bearing capacity and ductility coefficient of steel fiber reinforced concrete shearwalls decrease. It proves the rationality of the unit type, stress-strain relation of material and failure criteria used in the finite element analysis model.
