Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis on Statically Indeterminate Prestressed Concrete Beam

Abstract:

Embarked from the ductility theory, the bending moment amplitude modulation limiting value ductility expression which satisfies the bearing capacity requirements have been deduced，on the value of the bending moment amplitude modulation coefficient, the influence of the using stage crack width limiting value has been considered, and the suggesting formula of the bending moment amplitude modulation coefficient has been proposed. With the aid of APDL language in the ANSYS, the entire process force analysis to statically indeterminate prestressed concrete beam has been carried on, the finite element computed result and the experiment result has been confirmed, through the example drew correlation curve, confirmed with the experiment, the beam's ultimate bearing capacity has been discussed, and the plastic hinge's formation and the influence of moment redistribution to the ultimate bearing capacity has been analyzed.
