Studies on the Application of Variable Amplitude Loading to Concrete through Energy Equivalence
2016
Proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Fracture Mechanics of Concrete and Concrete Structures
unpublished
Damage quantification of concrete subjected to variable amplitude load is not a simple task. In this study, a procedure is proposed to convert variable amplitude load acting on concrete structures to an equivalent constant amplitude load. The procedure described in this work is developed using an existing fatigue crack propagation model and an energy dissipation model which are both based on the energy approach. Further, the damage incurred by concrete is quantified using damage index, which is
