Vulnerability Screening and Capacity Assessment of Reinforced Concrete Columns Subjected to Blast
Abstract
In this study, a nonlinear model is developed to study the response of blast-loaded reinforced concrete (RC) columns. The strain rate dependency and the axial load and P−Δ effects on the flexural rigidity variation along the column heights were implemented in the model. Strain rate and axial load effects on a typical RC column cross section were investigated by developing strain-rate-dependent moment-curvature relationships and force-moment …
