Abstract

The nonlinear dynamic response of RC beams under impact loads exhibits typically characteristics of two stages: local and global response. The duration of the local response stage is extremely short, and the beam itself is featured with obvious inertial and shear effects, which makes the impact damage mechanism of the RC beam exceptionally complex. Therefore, the ABAQUS explicit dynamic module is used in this paper to establish a three-dimensional finite element model of the RC simply supported beam impacted by the drop hammer, aiming to study the dynamic mechanical behavior of the RC beam in the local response stage in a comprehensive way, and the effectiveness of the modeling methods and techniques are verified by the available experimental results. Given this, the nonlinear mechanical behaviors of RC beams in different response stages are analyzed in detail in this paper, and the influence of impact velocity and shear bending ratio on the shear effect and ultimate failure modes of the specimen are investigated, as well.
