MODELLING THE RESPONSE OF ISOLATED SLAB SPECIMENS USING EXPLICIT QUASI-STATIC FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS

Nsikak William Ulaeto^*, Isaac Abiodun Odesol

Purpose: This paper assesses the analytic modelling of response of reinforced concrete isolated slab specimens using an explicit quasi-static nonlinear solution rather than the conventional implicit static nonlinear solution. The advantage of the former being its applicability to dynamic problems such as those associated with abnormal loadings on s...
