... tests. 2. In this paper, theoretical mechanical models are developed for all seven modes of failure, and the models calibrated such that the mean b of the ratios of experimental to predicted resistance re=rt is close to unity for all tests where that mode is predicted. Simpli ed resistance formulae...

... technique to reinforced concrete. Furthermore, the presence of damping, which is often ignored in simple dynamic models, is also included here. Calibration of the proposed model to existing test results and sophisticated nonlinear finite-element methods illustrates excellent correlation. Notation b width...
