Recently, the external bonding of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets has come to be regarded as a very effective method for strengthening of reinforced concrete structures. The behavior of CFRP-strengthened RC structure is mainly governed by the interfacial behavior, which represents the stress transfer and relative slip between concrete and the CFRP sheet. In this study, the effects of bonded length, width and concrete strength on the interfacial behavior are verified and a bond-slip model is proposed. The proposed bond-slip model has nonlinear ascending regions and exponential descending regions, facilitated by modifying the conventional bilinear bond-slip model. Finite element analysis results of interface element implemented with bond-slip model have shown good agreement with the experimental results performed in this study. It is found that the failure load and strain distribution predicted by finite element analysis with the proposed bond-slip are in good agreement with results of experiments.

The interfacial diffusion in Fe/Cr/MgO(001) multilayers has been studied using synchrotron x-ray techniques, such as x-ray reflectivity, extended x-ray absorption fine structures (EXAFS), and anomalous x-ray scattering (AXS). The results of x-ray reflectivity indicated that the interfacial roughness of Fe/Cr multilayers with Cr-$4{\AA}$-thick was larger than that with Cr-$4{\AA}$-thick. The results of EXAFS indicated that the Fe element dominantly diffuse into the stable Cr layers at the Fe/Cr interface. The AXS was certified the existence of the interdiffused Fe element in the Cr layers. Our study revealed that the rough interface of the Fe/Cr multilayers was caused by the interfacia diffusion of Fe element into the Cr layers.

Interfacial stress singularity induced in an analysis model consisting of the polymeric thin film and the elastic substrate has been investigated using the boundary element method. The interfacial singular stresses between the viscoelastic thin film and the elastic substrate subjected to a uniform moisture ingression are investigated for the case of a small interfacial edge crack. It is assumed that moisture effects are assumed to be analogous to thermal effects. Then, the overall stress intensity factor for the case of a small interfacial edge crack is computed. The numerical procedure does not permit calculation of the limiting case for which the edge crack length vanishes.

A 3D discrete element model integrating the rough surface contact concept with the flat-joint model is suggested to examine the mechanical characteristics of the interfacial transition zone (ITZ) in concrete. The essential components of our DEM procedure include the calculation of the actual contact area in an element contact-pair related to the bonded factor using a Gaussian probability distribution of asperity height, as well as the determination of the contact probability-relative displacement form using the least square method for further computing the force-displacement of ITZs. The present formulations are implemented in MUSEN, an open source development environment for discrete element analysis that is optimized for high performance computation. The model's meso-parameters are calibrated by using uniaxial compression and splitting tensile simulations, as well as laboratory tests of concrete from the literature. The present model's DEM predictions accord well with laboratory experimental tests of pull-out concrete specimens published in the literature.

PURPOSES : In this study, a fracture-based finite element (FE) model is proposed to evaluate the fracture behavior of fiber-reinforced asphalt (FRA) concrete under various interface conditions. METHODS : A fracture-based FE model was developed to simulate a double-edge notched tension (DENT) test. A cohesive zone model (CZM) and linear viscoelastic model were implemented to model the fracture behavior and viscous behavior of the FRA concrete, respectively. Three models were developed to characterize the behavior of interfacial bonding between the fiber reinforcement and surrounding materials. In the first model, the fracture property of the asphalt concrete was modified to study the effect of fiber reinforcement. In the second model, spring elements were used to simulated the fiber reinforcement. In the third method, bar and spring elements, based on a nonlinear bond-slip model, were used to simulate the fiber reinforcement and interfacial bonding conditions. The performance of the FRA in resisting crack development under various interfacial conditions was evaluated. RESULTS : The elastic modulus of the fibers was not sensitive to the behavior of the FRA in the DENT test before crack initiation. After crack development, the fracture resistance of the FRA was found to have enhanced considerably as the elastic modulus of the fibers increased from 450 MPa to 900 MPa. When the adhesion between the fibers and asphalt concrete was sufficiently high, the fiber reinforcement was effective. It means that the interfacial bonding conditions affect the fracture resistance of the FRA significantly. CONCLUSIONS : The bar/spring element models were more effective in representing the local behavior of the fibers and interfacial bonding than the fracture energy approach. The reinforcement effect is more significant after crack initiation, as the fibers can be pulled out sufficiently. Both the elastic modulus of the fiber reinforcement and the interfacial bonding were significant in controlling crack development in the FRA.

미소 드랍릿 시편을 이용한 탄소섬유와 에폭시 수지 사이의 계면전단강도에 대해 시험분석하였다. 또한 드랍릿 모델, 원형 단면 모델, 인발모델의 3종류의 유한요소해석을 통해 섬유/수지간의 응력분포를 계산하였다. 본 연구결과는 다음과 같다. (1) 미소드랍릿 시험의 경우는 인발시험보다 섬유/수지의 계면에서 큰 응력집중이 나타났으며 계면박리가 낮은 하중수준에서도 발생하기 용이함을 알수 있었다. (2) 미소드랍릿시험에서 높은 계면강도를 보였는데, 이는 미소드랍릿의 형상과 사이즈, 바이스팁과 접촉하는 부위의 응력집중효과를 함께 받았기 때문으로 해석되었다.

In this paper, an interfacial crack length has been detected by using the ultrasonic attenuation coefficient on the adhesively bonded double-cantilever beam (DCB) joints. The correlations between energy release rates which were investigated by experimental measurement, the boundary element method (BEM) and Ripling's equation are compared with each other. The experimental results show that the interfacial crack length for the ultrasonic attenuation coefficient and energy release rate increases proportionally. From the experimental results, we propose a method to detect the interfacial crack length by using the ultrasonic attenuation coefficient and discuss it.

탄성 섬유와 점탄성 기지로 구성된 2차원의 단일방향 복합재료에서 발생하는 계면 응력 특이성을 시간영역 경계요소법을 사용하여 조사하였다. 먼저, 아무런 균열없이 섬유와 기지가 완전하게 결합되어 있는 단일방향 복합재료에 횡방향 인장변형이 작용할때 자유경계면 부근에 나타나는 계면 특이응력들을 조사하였다. 그러한 응력들은 섬유와 기지의 결합분리나 계면 모서리 균열을 야기 시킬수 있다. 다음에, 여러가지 크기의 모서리 균열들에 대한 응력확대계수가 계산되었다.

The ultrasonic attenuation coefficients were measured by interfacial crack length in the adhesive components of double-cantilever beam(DCB). The energy release rate, G, was obtained by the experimental measurement of compliance. The numerical analysis by the boundary element method(BEM) and Ripling's equation was investigated. The experimental results represent that the relation between interfacial crack length for the ultrasonic attenuation coefficient and energy release rate is increased proportionally. A measurement method of the interfacial crack length by the ultrasonic attenuation coefficient was proposed and discussed.

Finite element analysis is used to study the role of interfacial properties on the bond strength of reinforcing steel to concrete. Specifically, the role played by epoxy coatings on the failure of standard beam-end specimens is explored. Experimental results show that epoxy coatings reduce bond strength, but that the effect is dependent on the bar size and the deformation pattern. The finite element model for the beam-end specimen includes representations for the deformed steel bar, the concrete, and the interfacial material. The interface elements can be varied to match the stiffness and friction properties of the interfacial material. Cracking within the concrete is represented using Hillerborg's ficticious crack model. The model is used to study important aspects or behavior observed in the tests and to provide an explanation for the effect of the various test parameters.
