Abstract

The method of damage analysis of reinforced concrete columns based on the fiber element model is established by combining the uniaxial damage constitutive model of concrete and steel with the fiber beam–column element model. The quasi-static test and the shaking table test of reinforced concrete columns are simulated and analyzed, respectively. The results show that the established fiber element model can predict nonlinear mechanical behavior and the damage distribution of reinforced concrete columns with good accuracy. Furthermore, the model can effectively simulate the evolution process of damage of columns, and describe weak parts of columns, and has high computational efficiency and solution accuracy, thus providing a practical analysis method for the simulation of building structures during earthquake.
