摘要
The cracking phenomenon in concrete gravity dams during the construction phase is analysed in this work. Stresses due to the self-weight of the dam, thermal gradients, creep and drying shrinkage are computed, taking into account the different stages of the construction process. A two-dimensional constitutive model considering time dependent and temperature dependent mechanical properties is adopted for the concrete. Safety against cracking is obtained using a criterion independent of the finite element mesh. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
