RESPONSE OF REINFORCED CONCRETE ELEMENTS TO SEVERE IMPULSIVE LOADS
A technique for obtaining continuous, quantitative descriptions of the dynamic structural response of impulsively loaded reinforced concrete beams and one-way slabs from the onset of loading to ultimate failure is presented. The step-by-step computational procedure accommodates arbitrary linear or nonlinear support conditions and accounts for nonlinear distribution of curvature along the span. The approach presented here allows the overcoming of the computational difficulties normally encountered with material nonlinearities in dynamic analysis. The application of the method to the analysis of reinforced concrete structural elements subjected to impulsive loads is efficient and accurate.
