Section Form

In order to meet demanding of non-magnetic, changing the reinforcement ratio, the degree of prestress and cross section form, four partially prestressed concrete beam (3 T shape section, 1 rectangle section) were made with CFRP as longitudinal reinforcement and stirrup. The results show that: the pure bending sections of the test beams conform the plane-section assumption; the beams with bigger rate of reinforcement or with stronger prestress tends to appear more cracks with smaller spacing and width, also their cracking load were higher with relatively lesser deflection. The cracking load and ultimate load of T-shape beam are slightly larger than the rectangular beam’s, but their deflections are similar nearly. Based on experimental research, nonlinear finite element analysis software ANSYS was utilized to establish the model, the results of numerical simulation and experiments showed good agreement.

In the present study, the synthetic signals from the combo tube are simulated by using commercial electromagnetic numerical analysis software which has been developed based on a volume integral method. A comparison of the simulated signals to the experiments is made for the verification of accuracy, and then evaluation of five deliberated single circumferential indication signals is performed to explore a possibility of using a numerical simulation as a practical calibration tool. The good agreement between the evaluation results for two cases (calibration done by experiments and calibration made by simulation) demonstrates such a high possibility.

The equations of damage evolution of cross-section and the deflection deformation of concrete beam were established. Through the plain concrete beam bending test, the formula for calculating the deflection was verified. It is proved that the formula established in this paper is more accurate than the equation that doesn’t consider the damage effect. The concrete beam was modelled and analyzed by means of finite element analysis software, and comparison was carried out between the numerical simulation result and the experimental data. On the basis, new methods and ideas about concrete-damage were proposed.

This paper reports a finite element analysis of the flexural behaviour of concrete-filled steel tubular members with elliptical section. A set of test data were used to verify the FE modeling. generally, good agreement was achieved. Typical curves of moment (M) versus deflection at mid-span (um), as well as stress distributions of steel tube and concrete of the composite members were compared and discussed. The results clearly show that the FE model is available for predicting the load-bearing capacities and the failure modes of the specimens.

Six reinforced concrete beams, including 4 beams strengthened with BFRP sheets at different layer of BFRP sheets and 2 control beams, are tested to investigate the effect of layer of BFRP sheets on the ultimate flexural resistance and load-deflection response of the pre-damaged concrete beams strengthened with BFRP sheets. Results show that the flexural resistance of pre-damaged concrete beams increases along with the BFRP sheets layer increasing,but the flexural resistance enhances the degree not to assume the linear relations to the enforcement layer.Numerical simulation of the pre-damaged concrete beams strengthened with BFRP sheets is conducted by ANSYS, and the results of numerical simulation are compared with those of the test results. It turns out that the results of numerical simulation are in good agreement with the test results.

An analytical method, by which hysteretic restoring force characteristics of unbonded prestressed concrete framed structure can be statically pursued on the basis of material properties, is presented. The bond-slip relationship between concrete and prestressing tendon is taken into account, and thus the method covers unbonded members and bonded members. For verifying the propriety of the analytical method, the experiment is carried out on a portal frame with an unbonded prestressed concrete beam of 4.2 m in length and reinforced concrete columns of 1 m in height. High intensity reversed cyclic lateral loading is applied. The experimental results show a good agreement with the analytical ones in terms of load-deflection relation and the fluctuation of the tendon stress at anchorage end.
