DVoronoi Applied Element Method (VAEM) has been developed based on previous Appleid Element Method (AEM). Comparing to the original AEM, the advantage of VAEM can be described as the followings: the boundary of VAEM domain can fit to any type of domain easily,...

The analytical model for collapse analysis is taken into account for the effect of post-peak behavior due to reinforcement buckling and concrete spalling is developed based on the Applied Element Method (AEM). A multi-span bridge was simulated using the proposed...

A new method for fracture analysis of reinforced concrete structures is proposed. The concrete is modeled as an assembly of distinct elements made by dividing the concrete virtually. These elements are connected as an assembly of springs in both normal and...
