Abstract / Description of output

This paper presents a preliminary investigation into the modelling of FRP-to-concrete bond behaviour using the K&C concrete damage model in LSDYNA explicit. The proposed FE model adopts the first order eight node hexahedron 3D solid element with one integration point and a sub-millimetre mesh. Results show that the model can simulate the static FRP-to-concrete bond behaviour with good accuracy and mesh objectivity. Further research is being undertaken to investigate its suitability for modelling the dynamic FRP-to-concrete bond behaviour.
