Application of Fractal Theory to the Analysis of Failure Characteristics of Low-Velocity-Impact Concrete Slabs

The fractal characteristics of low-velocity-impact concrete slabs were studied using fractal theory, and the fractal dimension value of cracks of each concrete specimen plate was calculated using box dimension as the basic principle and digital image analysis technology in conjunction with MATLAB software (R2021b) calculation functions. The energy dissipation of concrete slabs during low-velocity impact is calculated using the elastic sheet theory. The calculation results are realistic, and the energy conversion of concrete slabs during low-velocity impact is analyzed based on these results. The research findings indicate that concrete slab cracks exhibit good fractal characteristics during low-velocity impact, and their values can be utilized as a parameter to determine the extent of concrete slab failure. Moreover, the study found that the fractal dimension value of concrete slab cracks and the associated plastic deformation energy display good exponential function characteristics in the energy dissipation mechanism of low-velocity concrete slabs.
