Dynamic analysis of engineering structures is essential in the design process, providing insights into their behavior under various loading conditions. This paper focuses on the comparative study of implicit and explicit dynamic analysis methods using the PAK software and FEMAP with the Nastran software. Both methods have distinct advantages and di...

The concrete damaged plasticity (CDP) model is one of the most popular constitutive models implemented into various Finite Element Method software. The application to the real structures is documented in the literature, but still there are some doubts about the response in combination with the various finite elements. Simple benchmark examples simu...

A stress-strain history in the material of real concrete structures is usually unknown. An effect of concrete degradation is analyzed to describe how the initial degradation parameter can describe the stress-strain history. The idea is to introduce the initial damage of the structure by the degradation parameter to calculate the internal variables ...
