Beschreibung:
<jats:p>Supporting structures are subject to damage processes during their service lifetime. Damage may occur in the form of material or structural damage during the loading process. The parameters for describing damage are modeled as fuzzy values in the computational model. Damage is modeled by means of a fuzzy damage indicator, which assesses changes in stiffness as a result of damage. The damage indicator is applied for assessing damage development in plane reinforced concrete framework structures. Damage assessment with the aid of the introduced fuzzy damage indicator is demonstrated by way of two examples.</jats:p>
