Plastic Hinge Length in Reinforced Concrete Flexural Members
AbstractFor reinforced concrete (RC) flexural members, the plastic deformation is localized in a small zone namely the plastic hinge zone after the yielding of the member. The performance of the plastic hinge zone is critical for flexural members as it governs the load carrying and deformation capacities of the member. Therefore, plastic hinge has been

The Plastic Hinge Length Prediction of RC Members by Using ANN [PDF]
Abstract For many years, plastic hinges have been a very interesting and complex topic for researchers and engineers due to plastic deformations. Nonetheless, both standards and empirical relations are insufficient to determine the length of plastic hinges attached to concrete flexural elements.

Investigation of Plastic Hinge Length of Reinforced Concrete Wall [PDF]
This study investigates the effect of certain parameters on the magnitude of plastic hinge length of RC shear walls and proposes an analytical expression for estimating the plastic hinge length. A finite element model was analyzed and validated with experimental test results for an existing study and a parametric study was performed for it.
