In this scientific work, an improved analytical solution for adhesive stresses in a concrete beam bonded with the FRP plate is developed by including the effect of the adherend shear deformations. The analysis is based on the deformation compatibility approach where both the shear and normal stresses are assumed to be invariant across the adhesive layer thickness. The shear stress distribution is supposed to be parabolic across the depth of the adherends in computing the adhesive shear stress and Timoshenko's beam theory is employed in predicting adhesive normal stress to consider the shear deformation. Numerical results from the present analysis are presented both to demonstrate the advantages of the present solution over existing ones and to illustrate the main characteristics of adhesive stress distributions.

A theoretical method to predict the interfacial stresses in the adhesive layer of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with externally bonded carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) plate is presented. The analysis provides efficient calculations for both shear and normal interfacial stresses in reinforced concrete beams strengthened with composite plates, and accounts for various effects of Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus of adhesive. Such interfacial stresses play a fundamental role in the mechanics of plated beams, because they can produce a sudden and premature failure. The analysis is based on equilibrium and deformations compatibility approach developed by Tounsi. In the present theoretical analysis, the adherend shear deformations are taken into account by assuming a parabolic shear stress through the thickness of both the reinforced concrete beam and bonded plate. The paper is concluded with a summary and recommendations for the design of the strengthened beam.

In this paper, an improved theoretical interfacial stress analysis is presented for simply supported composite aluminum- sandwich honeycomb beam strengthened by imperfect FGM plateusing linear elastic theory. The adherend shear deformations have been included in the present theoretical analyses by assuming a linear shear stress through the thickness of the adherends, while all existing solutions neglect this effect. Remarkable effect of shear deformations of adherends has been noted in the results.It is shown that both the sliding and the shear stress at the interface are influenced by the material and geometry parameters of the composite beam. This new solution is intended for applicationto composite beams made of all kinds of materials bonded with a thin plate. Finally, numerical comparisons between the existing solutions and the present new solution enable a clear appreciation of the effects of various parameters.

Currently it is increasing to use th bonded dissimilar materials in the various field of advanced engineering such as the highly rigid and lighter vehicle, plastic molding LSI package and metal/ceramic bonded joint. In spite of such a wide application of the bonded dissimilar materials, the evaluation method of the bonding strength has not been established yet. Therefore in this paper we analyze the interface crack problem by introducing fracture mechanics parameters as the basic research about estimating of the strength of adhesive joints. The variation of stress intensity factor according to the elastic modulus of adherend and thickness of bonded layer are investigated. Numerical results are based on the results of boundary element analysis of four different type butt joints subjected to uniaxial tension loading.

Bonding composite materials to structural members for strengthening purpose has received a considerable attention in recent years. The major problem when using bonded FRP or steel plates to strengthen existing structures is the high interfacial stresses that may be built up near the plate ends which lead to premature failure of the structure. As a result, many researchers have developed several analytical methods to predict the interface performance of bonded repairs. In this paper, a numerical solution using finite - difference method is used to calculate the interfacial stress distribution in beams strengthened with FRP plate having a tapered ends with different thinning profiles. These latter, can significantly reduce the stress concentration. In the present theoretical analysis, the adherend shear deformations are taken into account by assuming a parabolic shear stress through the thickness of both beam and bonded plate. Numerical results from the present analysis are presented to demonstrate the advantages of use the tapers in design of strengthened beams.

In this paper, an improved theoretical interfacial stress and slip analysis is presented for simply supported composite steel-concrete beam bonded with an adhesive. The adherend shear deformations have been included in the present theoretical analyses by assuming a linear shear stress through the thickness of the adherends, while all existing solutions neglect this effect. Remarkable effect of shear deformations of elements has been noted in the results. It is observed that large shear is concentrated and slip at the edges of the composite steel-concrete. Comparing with some experimental results from references, analytical advantage of this improvement is possible to determine the normal and shear stress to estimate exact prediction of normal and shear stress interfacial along span between concrete and steel beam. The exact prediction of these stresses will be very important to make an accurate analysis of the mode of fracture. It is shown that both the normal and shear stresses at the interface are influenced by the material and geometry parameters of the composite steel-concrete beam. This research is helpful for the understanding on mechanical behavior of the connection and design of such structures.

The flexural strengthening of reinforced concrete beams by external bonding of composite materials has proved to be an efficient and practical technique. This paper presents a study on the flexural performance of reinforced concrete continuous beams with three spans (one span and two cantilevered) strengthened by bonding carbon fiber fabric (CFRP). The model is based on equilibrium and deformations compatibility requirements in and all parts of the strengthened continuous beam, i.e., the continuous concrete beam, the FRP plate and the adhesive layer. The adherend shear deformations have been included in the present theoretical analyses by assuming a linear shear stress through the thickness of the adherends. Remarkable effect of shear deformations of adherends has been noted in the results. The theoretical predictions are compared with other existing solutions that shows good agreement, and It shows the effectiveness of CFRP strips in enhancing shear capacity of continuous beam. It is shown that both the normal and shear stresses at the interface are influenced by the material and geometry parameters of the composite beam.

적층복합재는 면내 방향의 물성은 우수하지만 두께 방향의 물성이 취약하여 굽힘, 비틀림하중이 가해질 때 층간 분리(Delamination) 현상이 쉽게 나타난다. 층간 분리 현상을 지연하는 복합재의 두께 방향 물성 보강법으로는 Z-pinning, Stitching, Tufting 등이 있으며, 대표적으로 Z-pinning과 Stitching 공법을 많이 사용한다. Z-pinning 공법은 prepreg의 두께 방향으로 금속 핀이나 카본 핀을 적용하여 보강하는 공법이고, Stitching 공법은 프리폼에 상부 및 하부 섬유를 교차시켜 두께방향으로 기계적 강도를 향상시키는 방법이다. 본 논문에서는 Z-pinning과 Stitching 공법의 단점을 보완 및 개선한 I-fiber stitching 공법을 제안하였으며, 본 공법이 적용된 복합재 Single-lap joint의 정적 강도를 평가하였다. Single-lap joint 시편은 오토클레이브 진공백 공정을 사용하여 동시경화법으로 제작하였다. 복합재 시편 두께는 고정하였으며, Stitching 패턴(5×5, 7×7)과 삽입 각도(0°, 45°)를 변화시켜가며 총 5 종류의 시편을 제작하였다. 시험 결과, I-fiber stitching 공법을 적용한 시편의 파손하중은 보강하지 않은 시편의 파손하중 대비 최대 143% 증가하였다.

복합재 체결부는 뛰어난 물성과 가벼운 구조의 수요로 널리 사용되고 있다. 하지만 두께 방향의 취약한 물성으로 인해 체결부 파손이 쉽게 발생한다. 이를 극복하기 위하여 체결부 끝단의 집중되는 응력을 완화시켜주는 Z-피닝, 스티칭 등 다양한 공법들이 적용되고 있다. Z-피닝 공법은 프리프레그의 두께 방향으로 금속 핀이나 카본 핀을 적용하여 보강하는 공법이고, 스티칭 공법은 프리폼에 상부 및 하부 섬유를 교차시켜 두께방향으로 기계적 강도를 향상시키는 방법이다. I-fiber 스티칭 공법은 Z-pinning 공법과 Stitching 공법을 보완한 유망한 공법이다. 본 논문에서는 I-fiber 스티칭 공법으로 보강된 Single-lap joint 시편을 오토클레이브 진공백 성형법으로 제작하여, 모재의 두께와 스티칭 각도에 따른 인장강도 및 피로강도 특성을 평가하여, I-fiber 보강 복합재 체결부 구조물의 보강효과를 검증하였다. 실험결과, 복합재 체결부의 두께가 얇을수록 I-fiber 보강효과가 더 높게 나타났으며 I-fiber로 보강된 복합재 체결부는 파손강도에서 약 52%, 피로강도에서 약 118% 우수한 특성을 나타냄을 확인하였다.
