Analytical and numerical modeling of interfacial stresses in beams bonded with a thin plate

Tahar Hassaine Daouadji

Abstract

The composite plate to upgrade structures and, in particular, to extend the lives of reinforced concrete beams has wide applications. One of the main aspects of the bonded strengthening technology is the stress analysis of the reinforced structure. In particular, reliable evaluation of the adhesive shear stress and of the stress in the composite plates is mandatory in order to predict the beam

Key Words
