A suite of NLFEA programs, VecTor, has been developed at the University of Toronto. However, this software still requires the development of other functions to execute some types of analyses. One of the required functions is the consideration of transient creep strain in the heat transfer analysis. Moreover, there is a strong need to develop a general graphics-based post-processor applicable to VecTor programs.
The first objective of this thesis is to develop a function considering the effect of the transient creep strain, because it can have significant influence on the behaviour of concrete under elevated temperatures. The second purpose of this thesis is to construct the new analysis visualization features compatible with entire suite of VecTor programs. As the result, the modified post-processor, JANUS, has had its abilities expanded significantly.
