Dynamic fracture mechanics of FRP-concrete interface by Li, Gen

“…The model was applied in finite element analysis (FEA) of various dynamic tests with FRP-concrete interface bond, e.g. single-lap shear tests, three-point bending tests, FRP strengthened RC beams subjected to dynamic loading and an FRP strengthened RC wall under blast load. From the comparison with test results, the model was shown to be reliable and accurate in simulating the behaviour of FRP-concrete mixed-mode separation.…”
