In International Conference on Recent Advances in Nonlinear Models – Structural Concrete Applications.978-972-96524-7-9http://hdl.handle.net/10198/11268In this study, numerical simulations of the experimental behaviour of reinforced concrete slabs tested under punching by the authors are presented. The capabilities and limitations of the numerical model to reproduce the brittle shear failure are discussed.engPunching shearFracture mechanicsLoad eccentricityShear reinforcementconference object
