| Abstract: |
The development of a static material nonlinear finite element computer program for the analysis of reinforced concrete (R.C) slabs and shells retrofitted with fiber reinforced plastics (FRP) is presented herein. The proposed material model for reinforced concrete section attached with FRP is based on the layered approach. The concrete model takes the elastoplastic behavior in compression domain, and the elastic brittle fracture behavior in tension domain, into consideration, as well as compression softening, crack tension stiffening, and rotating crack concept. The steel is modeled by an idealized bilinear curve identical in both tension and compression. The FRP is treated as an orthotropic layer with elastic brittle fracture behavior. The developed formulation and software show an excellent agreement with the experimental and numerical results in the literature. |
