An efficient generation method of embedded reinforcement in hexahedral elements for reinforced concrete simulations
چکیده انگلیسی

In this paper, an automatic procedure for the generation of embedded steel reinforcement inside hexahedral finite elements is presented. The automatic mapping of the entire reinforcement network inside the concrete hexahedral finite elements is performed using the end-point coordinates of the rebar reinforcement macro-elements. By introducing a geometrical constraint, this procedure decreases significantly the computational effort for generating the input data of the embedded rebar elements in three-dimensional finite-element analysis, particularly when dealing with relatively large-scale reinforced concrete models. The computational robustness and efficiency of the proposed mesh generation method are demonstrated through numerical experiments.


► In this paper a new embedded rebar mesh generation method is presented.
► Through this method embedded rebar elements inside hexahedral elements are generated.
► The proposed method is parametrically investigated.
► The computational efficiency and robustness is demonstrated through several numerical implementations.
