Finite Element Simulation of RC Beam Strengthened with FRP

Article Preview

Abstract:

The finite element modeling is established for reinforced concrete(RC) beam reinforced with fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) using the serial/parallel mixing theory. The mixture algorithm of serial/parallel rule is studied based on the finite element method. The results obtained from the finite element simulation are compared with the experimental data. The comparisons are made for load-deflection curves at mid-span. The numerical analysis results agree well with the experimental results. Numerical results indicate that the proposed procedure is validity.
