Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNumerical Study on Coupling Beam Retrofitted Using CFRP and GFRP SheetsSaeideh Hakimi, Rahmat MadandoustOne of the most useful way to resist against earthquake is using coupling beam of steel shear walls. The steel shear wall’s behavior depends on several factors such as stiffness, ductility, strength and so on. But, it has the shear cracks in coupling beam. In this paper, the effect of Carbon Reinforced Fiber Polymer (CFRP) on coupling beams has been … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 6 Aug 2018 · 7,723 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleModeling of Reinforced Concrete Frames with Infill Walls Under Cyclic Loading Strengthening with CFRPMojtaba Fallahi, Sajjad Sayyar Roudsari, Mona Haghighifar, Rahmat MadandoostNowadays, using infill isolators in Reinforced Concrete (RC) structures is very common. In earlier research this infill isolators are usually considered as non-structural elements, but in recent researches it was demonstrated that infill has considerable effects on natural period, stiffness, strength and overall behavior of structure specially when it is subjected to seismic ground motions. In this study a one-bay … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 6 Jul 2018 · 8,444 accessesView PDF Cite

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 PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProgressive Damage Modelling of Transverse Impact Behavior of Adhesively Bonded Composite JointsDimitrios Athinaios, Konstantinos Tserpes, Giannis FlorosA three-dimensional dynamic numerical model was developed, using the commercially available finite element software LS-DYNA to simulate the Low Velocity Impact (LVI) case on bonded joints consisting of woven CFRP adherents. The adhesive failure simulated using the Cohesive Zone Method (CZM), while the failures in the composite material simulated using a progressive damage material model based on Hashin’s failure criteria. … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2020 · 6,424 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite 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 PDF Cite
