PROBLEM OF DELAMINATION IN RC BEAMS STRENGTHENED BY FRP WITH RHEOLOGICAL MODEL OF ADHESIVE LEYER
Journal Title: Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 23
Abstract
This paper deals with one of the most dangerous failure modes in layered structures, namely delamination. The strengthening layer is modelled by a solid-shell finite element. The mechanical modelling of delamination onset and propagation is based upon a cohesive zone model implemented into a cohesive element located between adhesive layer and a concrete structure. The long time behavior of epoxy adhesive layer is modelled with the five-parameter rheological model.The numerical simulations are accomplished within the commercial software package Abaqus by the implementation of a user-written finite element and user-written material.

THE EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF THE EFFECTIVE THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY OF BUNDLES OF RECTANGULAR STEEL SECTIONS
Bundles of rectangular steel sections are examples of the porous charge. Due to the voids within the sections, this type of charge is characterized by porosity even exceeding 85%. This makes the thermal properties of the...
