Abstract
This paper reveals the failure characteristic points of the spiral reinforced column during the damage process by modeling and analyzing the stressing state of the column with the test and finite element output data. At the same time, the structural stressing state theory and the correlation modeling analysis method’s applicability to spiral reinforced concrete columns are verified. First, a finite element model was established based on the literature’s spiral reinforced concrete column tests. Then, correlation modeling was performed on the test strain data to obtain correlation characteristic pairs (mode-characteristic parameters), and stressing state modeling was performed on the internal energy and element strain energy data from the finite element model to obtain stressing state characteristic pairs. The slope increment criterion is applied to the obtained stressing state characteristic parameter curves to reveal the characteristic point Q, defined as the failure starting point. The reasonableness of the failure starting point is further verified by observing the cloud diagram of the finite element model in the vicinity of the characteristic point Q. In general, the correlation modeling method proposed in this paper can provide a new reference for structural stressing state analysis. In addition, the failure starting point of spiral reinforced concrete columns revealed in this paper can be used as a design reference.
