Fire Response Calculation Based on Damage Mechanics

Article Preview

Abstract:

Damage mechanics is introduced into the fire response calculation of the concrete structure. The damage mechanics equations for fire response calculation are established. They are the damage evolution equation based on “residual strength” theory, heat conduction equations, and elastic mechanical equations. The fire response calculation of a concrete slab under external load and fire is shown. ANSYS is selected for calculating. The temperature field and stress field are obtained, the damage and failure process are described using the technique of killing or activating elements in ANSYS, and the fire resistance of the slab is obtained.
