Abstract

Dynamic Realistic Failure Process Analysis (DRFPA) is a numerical software based on FEM it is firstly validated by comparing with the experimental test. Such validation is carried out under two consistent concrete specimens under uniaxial compression. After validation, DRFPA is used to study the influence of two parallel pre-existing crack inclination angles on the fracture of concrete under dynamic loads. The evolution of wing cracks and secondary cracks is investigated by observing the initiation, coalescence, and propagation of them. Meanwhile, the relationship between failure mode and inclination angles is discussed via analyzing the acoustic emission events. Finally, it is concluded the relationship between inclination angles of pre-cracks and performance/stability of concrete structure.
