Abstract

Abstract: The analysis of the mechanical behaviour of reinforced concrete slabs on elastic foundation under impact loads is of great significance in the construction and protection of concrete pavements in airports. Based on the Elastic Half-space Foundation Model and Concrete Damage Plasticity Model, the displacement and stress fields of reinforced concrete slabs under impact loading are numerically simulated by explicit nonlinear finite element method. The result can be used to design and evaluate the safety of foundations and reinforced concrete slabs under impact loads.
