标题：Analysis the effects of lightweight concrete in the middle layer of multi-layered reinforced concrete structures on the stress-strain state using the finite element method
摘要：The development of methods for the calculating reinforced concrete structures covers a wide range of issues, including the expansion of the application of new innovative materials such as concrete and reinforcement. For usage in the practice of modern construction of multilayer structures made of concrete with different physic-mechanical characteristics, it is compulsory to conduct numerical studies of the stress-strain state of these structures under different types of loading. This article presents an analysis of the influence of the relations between the initial elastic modulus of the outer and middle layers for the stress-strain state and the deflection of three-layer reinforced concrete structures using the finite element method in the program ANSYS Mechanical. Numerical modeling allows comparing the obtained results and building theoretical dependences in a wide range of specified parameters for the construction of sections of multilayer reinforced concrete elements. The obtained scientific results enable to determine rational parameters for modeling various structural solutions of multilayer reinforced concrete structures. This would limit the number of actual test samples, increasing the efficiency of the experiment.
