Theoretical and Numerical Study on a New Hybrid FRP Wrapped Anchor

Article Preview

Abstract:

A new hybrid FRP wrapped anchor is developed to solve the poor ductility of FRP anchor. The designability of functionally graded material (FGM) makes it possible to connect the high ductility metal to FRP material. Numerical and analytical methods are compared in solving plane stress FGM cantilever beam problem. The results show the analytical method's simplification in constraint makes it inaccurate in solving displacements. Consequently, the numerical method is employed to analyze the hybrid FRP wrapped anchor in the ideal condition. The results indicate the hybrid FRP wrapped anchor solved the current problem theoretically.
