Fiber Beam Element

A fiber beam finite element that could account for the nonlinear constitutive relationship between steel and concrete was applied to investigate the hysteretic behavior of concrete filled steel tube (CFT) arch ribs of bridges. At first, the effectiveness of this fiber beam element using for nonlinear analysis was verified by comparing the analytical results with the experimental data, and then this composite element was applied to analyze the hysteretic performance of CFT arch ribs. The following hysteretic behavior of CFT arch ribs of bridges was investigated such as the hysteretic behaviors of moment-curvature of arch ribs in vertical direction of bridge and the hysteretic relationship between load and displacement of arch ribs in longitudinal and transverse direction of bridge. Finally, some parameters affecting the hysteretic behaviors of CFT arch ribs were presented by evaluating the capacity of ductility of CFT arch ribs.

Aim of this paper is to present a numerical method for modeling of the so-called “equivalent box section fiber beam concrete element”. By comparing hysteresis curves of specimen of the concrete structure plotted with rebar beam with those plotted with the equivalent box section beam under a set of loading cases, the following conclusions are obtained: 1) The modeling technology of equivalent box section beam can overcome the difficulty which the rebar in beam can only be used in static calculation, and the fiber beam element can be applied to dynamic explicit analysis; 2) By comparing hysteresis curves which are plotted by the rebar beam with those obtained with model of equivalent box section beam, it is found that results are in good agreement for a specific typical loading case; 3) By comparing hysteresis curves of the equivalent box section beam with experimental data under given loading case, numerical results indicate that numerical results obtained with proposed modeling technology can fit the experiment phenomena very well.
