Xu, Jie (author), Hendriks, M.A.N. (author), Rots, J.G. (author), Tsouvalas, A. (author)Due to the accompanying severe consequences of explosions, the blast puts a great threat to public security. Nonlinear finite element analysis is a possible method for civil engineers to check the integrity of the structures under blast loading without underestimating the limit of the structures. However, different choices of element types...conference paper 2023

de Putter, Arjen (author), Hendriks, M.A.N. (author), Rots, J.G. (author), Yang, Y. (author), Engen, Morten (author), van den Bos, Ab A. (author)Nineteen 2D nonlinear finite element analysis (NLFEA) solution strategies were benchmarked against a wide variety of 101 experiments on reinforced concrete beams failing in bending, flexural shear, or shear compression. The relatively high number of solution strategies was motivated by the conviction that choices for the constitutive models,...journal article 2022

Fusco, Daniela (author), Addessi, D. (author), Messali, F. (author), Rots, J.G. (author), Pampanin, S. (author)Since the 1980s, calcium silicate element masonry has been commonly used in Dutch buildings, and vertical continuous joints have been usually located at the corner of perpendicular walls. Since the shear failure of these joints may significantly reduce the seismic performance of the flanged wall and therefore of the entire building, the...journal article 2022

Pari, M. (author), Swart, W. (author), van Gijzen, M.B. (author), Hendriks, M.A.N. (author), Rots, J.G. (author)Sequentially linear analysis (SLA), an event-by-event procedure for finite element (FE) simulation of quasi-brittle materials, is based on sequentially identifying a critical integration point in the FE model, to reduce its strength and stiffness, and the corresponding critical load multiplier (λ <sub>crit</sub>), to scale the linear analysis...journal article 2019

Pari, M. (author), Jafari, S. (author), Messali, F. (author), Esposito, R. (author), Rots, J.G. (author)Induced seismicity in the Groningen region of the Netherlands has led to a large scale testing campaign on Calcium silicate element masonry structures at Delft University of Technology. An overview of the finite element analysis (FEA) using an implicit solver, on the full scale quasi-static cyclic pushover test performed on a two-storey calcium...conference paper 2017

Li, Q. (author), Su, Y. (author), Wu, Y. (author), Borgart, A. (author), Rots, J.G. (author)Vector form intrinsic finite element is a recently developed and promising numerical method for the analysis of complicated structural behavior. Taking the cable-link element as example, the framework of the vector form intrinsic finite element is explained first. Based on this, a constant strain triangle element is introduced, and relevant...journal article 2017

Kappen, J.M.J. (author), Giardina, G. (author), Hendriks, M.A.N. (author), Rots, J.G. (author)The development of infrastructure in major cities often involves tunnelling, which can cause damage to existing structures. Therefore, these projects require a careful prediction of the risk of settlement induced damage. The simplified approach of current methods cannot account for three-dimensional structural aspects of buildings, which can...conference paper 2013

Slobbe, A.T. (author), Hendriks, M.A.N. (author), Rots, J.G. (author)This paper presents a dedicated numerical test that enables to assess the directional mesh bias of constitutive models in a systematic way. The test makes use of periodic boundary conditions, by which strain localization can be analyzed for different mesh alignments with preservation of mesh uniformity and with exclusion of boundary disturbances...conference paper 2013

Laurenco, P.B. (author), Rots, J.G. (author), Blaauwendraad, J. (author)Two models for the micro- and macro-analysis of masonry structures are presented. For the micromodeling of masonry, an interface failure criterion that includes a straight tension cut-off, the Coulomb friction law and an elliptical cap is proposed. The inelastic behavior includes tensile strength softening, cohesion softening, compressive...journal article 1995
