Nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete buinlidng under seismic loads

For participating at SMART 2013 campaign, which aim's to arise knowledge in nonlinear behavior of rc structures under seiemic loads, a FEM model had been created with 3D cubic elements and a concrete constitutive law well representing the local phenomena occurring in cyclic loading as microcracking, internal sliding etc...The numerical results have later on been compared to the experimental ones and to a linear-elastic numerical model and interpreted
