MODELLING THE DELAMINATION FAILURE ALONG THE CFRP-CFST BEAM INTERACTION SURFACE USING DIFFERENT FINITE ELEMENT TECHNIQUES

Nonlinear finite element (FE) models are prepared to investigate the behaviour of concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) beams strengthened by carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets. The beams are strengthened from the bottom side only by varied sheet lengths (full and partial beam lengths) and th...
