Progressive collapse of reinforced concrete buildings considering flexure-axial-shear interaction in plastic hinges

open access: yesCogent Engineering, 2021
Progressive collapse assessment of a reinforced concrete (RC) building designed only for gravity loads and lacking a dedicated lateral load resisting system was carried out using the alternate load path (ALP) method and finite element method (FEM ...

Simplified Plastic Hinge Model for Reinforced Concrete Beam–Column Joints with Eccentric Beams

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
In nonlinear analysis for performance-based design of reinforced concrete moment frames, a plastic hinge spring element is predominantly used in order to simply and accurately describe the inelastic behavior of beam–column joints, including strength ...

Plastic hinges as phase transitions in strain softening beams [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mechanics of Materials and Structures, 2007
A jump between the upper yield point and lower yield point is well evident in strain driven tests on lowcarbon steel bars. However, in the constitutive equations commonly used to model the elastic-plastic flexure of beams this jump is usually neglected.
