Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAdvanced XFEM Simulation of Pull-out and Debonding of Steel Bars and FRP-Reinforcements in Concrete BeamsNicola Orlando, Elena BenvenutiAn innovative three-dimensional model is applied to the pull-out of steel bars and the debonding of FRP plates from concrete specimens. The shearing and opening modes at the interface of debonding is fully captured. The model is based on an innovative variant of the regularized eXtended Finite Element Method (XFEM) developed by the authors. In this method, the displacement discontinuity … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 6 Oct 2016 · 8,289 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFinite-Element Numerical Simulation of the Bending Performance of Post-Tensioned Structural Glass Beams with Adhesively Bonded CFRP TendonsChiara Bedon, Christian LouterIn this study, a Finite-Element (FE) numerical investigation is carried out on laminated glass beams with Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) adhesively bonded post-tensioning tendons. Taking advantage of past four-point bending experimental test results available in literature, a refined full 3D FE numerical model is calibrated and validated. A key role is given to a multitude of aspects, including the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 27 Sep 2016 · 8,739 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNonlinear Models and Experimental Investigation of Lifetime History of HSC Flexural BeamsK. Masti, A.A. Maghsoudi, R. RahgozarThe nature of fracture in high strength concrete is brittle and therefore, the investigation behavior of flexural high strength concrete (HSC) members is important. This paper describes the deflection, strain and energy ductility and the lifetime history of experimental and theoretical analysis of six caste reinforced HSC beams with different percentage of ρ and ρρ'. The beams were loaded incrementally … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 6,755 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFinite Element and Experimental Serviceability Analysis of HSC Beams Strengthened with FRP SheetsSeyed Hamid Hashemi, Reza Rahgozar, Ali Akbar MaghsoudiThe use of externally bonded composite sheets or laminates is by now a diffuse technique to strengthen existing RC structures. However, some aspects of flexural condition still need experimental and numerical analysis; furthermore, especially for serviceability checks, there is a lack of code provisions. Six reinforced high strength concrete (HSC) beams strengthened with FRP sheets were fabricated and tested, the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,440 accessesView PDFCite
