Abstract
In this study, dynamic debonding behaviour between fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) and concrete is numerically investigated by using finite element code LS-DYNA. A three-dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) model is built and a bond-slip model is incorporated into the simulation of interfacial bond between FRP and concrete. To validate the accuracy of the numerical model, experimental results from 42 dynamic single shear tests on FRP-concrete joints are employed. The debonding load and shear slip responses, FRP strain distributions, and interfacial bond-slip responses are compared between the numerical and experimental results. It is found that the numerical model is capable of predicting the debonding behaviours under various loading rates.
In addition, an analytical dynamic bond strength model is proposed to predict the ultimate debonding strain and debonding load by incorporating the dynamic increase factor and strain rate. In addition, a semi-empirical model is proposed to predict the ultimate debonding strain and debonding load by incorporating the dynamic increase factor and strain rate. The semi-empirical model is validated against the numerical results and 119 experimental tests with a good correlation.
