Análise não-linear física de vigas contínuas em concreto armado e protendido

Abstract

A non-linear analysis is developed for a prestressed concrete continuous beam, based on the theory of the finite-element method. As a consequence of the theoretical study, a computer program in FORTRAN is developed. This program performs a physical non - linear analysis of a prestressed continuous beam with any type of section and variable geometric characteristics. An example is solved. With these results, a comparison is made with the results obtained with a linear elastic analysis for the same structure.
