Based on the beam theory and the fracture mechanics, a new theoretical model is proposed to analyze the peeling-off behavior near FRP-concrete interfaces, which is governed by residual thermal stresses. Numerical examples are presented to provide a clear insight into the failure mechanism. Some suggestions are provided for the optimal design of FRP strengthened structures.展开更多

Results show that the thermal stresses concentration has been effectively reduced, and the distribution of the thermal deformations and thermal strains have also been relaxed and improved by transition layer of FGM.展开更多
