Mesoscale Concrete 2D Finite Element Solver

Mesoscale Concrete 2D Finite Element Solver

Mesoscale Concrete 2D Finite Element Solver with many example files in Run Examples, Run Flexure, Run Disc, Run Comparisions, Run Semi-circular folders.

The codes in three of the above folders were used to generate results in the following references:

-Run Flexure: Al-Jelawy, Haider M., et al. "Probabilistic mesoscale analysis of concrete beams subjected to flexure." International Journal of Applied Mechanics and Engineering 26.3 (2021): 12-27.

-Run Disc: Al-Jelawy, Haider M., et al. "Mesoscale modeling of fracture in cement and asphalt concrete." Przegląd Naukowy. Inżynieria i Kształtowanie Środowiska 30.3 [93] (2021).
