Behavior and modeling of RC beams subjected to high rates of concentrated loading

During recent decades, the increasing amount of accidents such as earthquakes, blasting, terrorist attack attracted lot researchers to analyze and design the reinforced concrete structures against these accidents. However, the knowledge and studies of this area is still not enough to deal with the a...
