Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePreliminary Experimental and Finite-Element Numerical Assessment of the Structural Performance of SMA-Reinforced GFRP SystemsFilipe Amarante dos Santos, Chiara BedonIn this study, the feasibility and potentiality of a novel design concept is explored by means of small scale experimental tests and Finite-Element numerical simulation. Taking advantage of the intrinsic potentiality of Shape-Memory Alloys wires able to work as adaptive actuators when subjected to joule heating, a 'smart-GFRP' concept consisting in Glass-Fiber-Reinforced-Polymer (GFRP) structural members with a SMA reinforcement is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 27 Sep 2016 · 8,289 accessesView PDFCite
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 PDFCite

SugunaThis research study presents the evaluation of the structural behaviour of reinforced concrete beams with externally bonded Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) reinforcements. Three different steel ratios with two different Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) types and two different thicknesses in each type of GFRP were used. Totally fifteen rectangular beams of 3 m length were cast. Three rectangular beams were … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,480 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNeural Network for Performance of Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer Plated RC BeamsN. Pannirselvam, P.N. Raghunath, K. SugunaPrediction of the properties other than moment carrying capacity of GFRP plated RC beams does not have any straight forward mechanism. This study presents a General Regression Neural Network (GRNN) based computational model for predicting the yield load, ultimate load, yield deflection, ultimate deflection, deflection ductility and energy ductility of such beams. Results from experimental investigations carried out on nine … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,329 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalytical Study of Reinforced Concrete Beams Strengthened by FRP Bars Subjected to Impact Loading ConditionsSajjad Roudsari, Sameer Hamoush, Sayed Soleimani et al.Civil engineers have considered Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) materials to enhance the performance of structural members subjected to static and dynamic loading conditions. However, there are some design limitations due to uncertainty in the behavior of such strengthened members. This fact is particularly important when considering the complex nature of the nonlinear behavior of materials, the impact loading conditions and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 21 Apr 2018 · 9,929 accessesView PDFCite
