... collapse simplified numerical simulation method vehicle impact failure Progressive collapse of reinforced concrete (RC) frames is commonly induced by initial local damage caused by incidental loading, such as vehicle impact, which consequently propagates through structural members and eventually...

...Anh Tuan Pham; Christian Brenneis; Christoph Roller; Kang Hai Tan To study the response of reinforced concrete structures under progressive collapse induced by an actual blast event, an experimental programme on reinforced concrete frames subjected to contact detonation was conducted. The tested...
