DIANA를 이용한 콘크리트 균열 진전 시뮬레이션

Simulation of crack propagation of concrete with the DIANA

This paper discusses 2D lattice models of beams for simulating the fracture of brittle materials. A simulation of an experiment on a connote beam subjected to bending, in which two overlapping cracks occur, is used to study the effect of individual beam characteristics and different arrangements of the beams in the overall lattice. It was found that my regular orientation of the beams influences the resulting crack patterns. Methods to implement a wide range of poisson's ratios are also developed, the use of the lattice to study arbitrary micro-structures is outlined The crack pattern that n obtained with lattice m in good agreement with the experimental results. Also, numerical simulations of the tests were performed by means of a lattice model, and non-integer dimensions were measured on the predicted lattice damage patterns.
