Impact on concrete structures - experiment and simulation
The simulation of a reinforced concrete structure, that is hit by a fast object, requires sophisticated methods in finite element modelling to obtain realistic results. The project focus is on realistic and efficient models for the impact loading, the boundary conditions and the nonlinear behaviour of material and structure with respect to the strain rate. The aim is the developement and application of a comprehensive model for finite element simulation of impact on reinforced concrete structures in order to evaluate the residual
load bearing capability after the impact and the resistance to impact loading of the structure
