Analysis of FRP/Concrete Interface Creep Using Fractional Derivative Rheological Model

Article Preview

Abstract:

FRPhas been widely used in the strengtheningof RC structures because of its low density, high strength and anti-corrosion. Long term performance ofFRP/concrete interface is one of the keys for its successful engineering application, and however it has notbeen well studied. In this article a fractional derivative rheological model was proposed which is able to characterize the complicated creepdeformation of epoxy FRP/concreteinterface layer with simple expression. Numerical study revealed thatinterfacial creep might lead to notable stress redistribution and largeinterfacial deformation has possibility to cause weakening of FRPstrengthening.
