Reinforced-Concrete-Membrane

This library is part of the research published in Structures Journal.

Library for nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete membrane elements by Modified Compression Field Theory (VECCHIO; COLLINS, 1986), Disturbed Stress Field Model (VECCHIO, 2000) and Softened Membrane Model (HSU; ZHU, 2002).

This library uses:

• MathNet.Numerics for Linear Algebra operations;

• Units.NET for simple unit conversions;

• Material for concrete and reinforcement constitutive models.

• OnPlaneComponents for stress and strain transformations;

• Extensions for some numeric extensions.

Class Membrane

The membrane object can be initiated by static typing:

var membrane = Membrane.From([Concrete Parameters], [Web Reinforcement], [Width], [Constitutive Model])

Class MembraneSolver

The MembraneSolver class implements a nonlinear solution algorithm for solving a membrane element with known applied stresses.

Example:

var solver = new MembraneSolver([Membrane Element], [Nonlinear Solution Method])

solver.Solve([Applied Stresses], [Simulate until failure?])

solver.OutputResults(out [File Path], [Location to write file])

A csv file will be saved in the output location.

Usage
