The finite element software ANSYS/CivilFEM was applied to analyses the influence of steel bar restraint on creep and shrinkage of reinforced concrete. The analysis results are in good agreement with the experiment results. When the reinforcement ratio is low, the steel bar exerts less influence on creep and shrinkage, and the influence of steel bar can be neglected in engineering application. However, the reinforcement can effectively reduce creep and shrinkage development when the reinforcement ratio is high.

Abstract Reinforced concrete structure is widely used in building structure because of its unique physical and mechanic properties, but with the increase of service life, there will be different degrees of damage in the structures. In this paper, combined with the test beam, a model of reinforced concrete beam strengthened with CFRP is established by Using ANSYS finite element software, nonlinear finite element analysis is carried out on the whole process of yield, cracking and destruction of the test beam under secondary load, while different working states of CFRP sheets were simulated by the life and death unit. The results show that the bending performance of reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened with CFRP can be predicted by selecting the finite element analysis model rationally.

Finite element analysis is carried out on the dynamic splitting tensile mechanical properties of reinforced concrete with LS-DYNA. The impact of strain rate and reinforcement ratio on the dynamic tensile strength and failure mode of reinforced concrete is considered in the calculation. The result shows that the form of reinforcement and reinforcement ratio has a greater impact on the failure mode and tensile strength of concrete. The dynamic splitting tensile strength of reinforced concrete has a certain strain rate effect and its splitting tensile strength increases with the strain rate; the splitting tensile strength of reinforced concrete also increases with its reinforcement ratio.

The rule of stiffness and deflection change of reinforced concrete two-way slabs strengthened by CFRP was discussed after test research. The results were analyzed with ANSYS finite element software and compared with test results, and the ANSYS finite element analysis results agreed well with test results. It shows that CFRP can improve the flexural stiffness of reinforced concrete two-way slabs and effectively restrain deflection deformation of them. So ANSYS analysis results can provide reference for the test and engineering.

The paper makes an analysis of the reinforced concrete beams with exterior FRP Shell in Finite Element, and compares it with the test results. The results show that, by means of this model, mechanical properties of reinforced concrete beams with exterior FRP shell can be predicted better. However, the larger the load, the larger deviation between calculated values and test values. Hence, if more accurate calculation is required, issues of contact interface between the reinforced concrete beams and the FRP shell should be taken into consideration.

Measurements made on a long span reinforced concrete arch culvert under 7.3 m (24 ft) of silty clay backfill were compared with results from finite-element analyses of the soil-structure system using the CANDE finite-element code. The culvert strains and deflections and the soil pressure on the culvert were measured during construction and during the following 2.5 years at three instrumented cross sections. The CANDE program was modified to account for the effects of concrete creep and shrinkage strains after it was noted that the measured postconstruction culvert deflection and strains increased significantly whereas the measured soil pressure on the culvert remained relatively constant. Good agreement was generally obtained between measured and calculated values of the culvert strain and deflection and the soil pressure during the entire monitoring period after the code was modified.
