Research on Cracking of Reinforced Concrete Beam and Its Influence on Natural Frequency by Expanded Distinct Element Method

AbstractA distinct element model was proposed to simulate cracking in a reinforced concrete beam, and the influence of cracking on natural frequency was analyzed. Hexagonal block and tensile-shear ...
