Journal ArticleDOI
A meso-scale discrete element method framework to simulate thermo-mechanical failure of concrete subjected to elevated temperatures
TL;DR: In this paper, a mesoscale thermodynamic analysis of plain unreinforced concrete based on the discrete element method (DEM) is presented, which represents the aggregates and matrix as a system of deformable polyhedral blocks, interacting along their boundaries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete plane frames exposed to fire using direct stiffness method
TL;DR: In this article, a framework based on the direct stiffness method for nonlinear thermo-mechanical analysis of reinforced concrete plane frames subjected to fire is presented, which accounts for geometric nonlinearity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Finite element based micro modelling of masonry walls subjected to fire exposure: Framework validation and structural implications
TL;DR: In this article, the first author would like to acknowledge the post-doctoral fellowship offered by the University of Minho for this research and the Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT) to the Research Project IntegraCrete (PTDC/ECM-EST/1056/2014 - POCI-01-0145-FEDER-016841).
Journal ArticleDOI
An integrated framework for nonlinear analysis of plane frames exposed to fire using the direct stiffness method
TL;DR: In this article, a coupled framework for analysis of reinforced concrete (RC) and steel planar frames subjected to fire is developed with three-way coupling between heat transfer, mechanical deformations and pore pressure build-up.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distributed plasticity model for analysis of steel structures subjected to fire using the direct stiffness method
TL;DR: A temperature-dependent distributed plasticity model in a direct stiffness method (DSM) based formulation for coupled nonlinear thermo-mechanical analysis of steel space frames and the results indicate that such a coupling can be ignored in such macro scale structural fire computations.
