WITHDRAWN: A novel approach of material nonlinear analysis for concrete structures

Abstract

Abstract The article demonstrates a novel approach for material nonlinear analysis. This analysis procedure eliminates tedious and lengthy step by step incremental and then iterative procedure adopted classically and gives direct results in the linear as well as in nonlinear range of the material behavior. It is found that the methodology is very suitable to apply for the brittle material such as concrete and composite materials. One dimensional problem of a simple bar is solved to formulate fundamental procedure and basics of the method. Another two dimensional problem of beam bending is solved for further strengthening the method. It is found that it is an excellent computational procedure adopted so far for material nonlinear analysis which gives very accurate results, easy to adopt and simple in calculations. The method not only eliminates linearity assumptions in its derivations and calculations but also eliminates all types of possibility of errors in the analysis procedure.
