The use of high modulus CFRP laminates in strengthening steel members has the
advantage of increasing the strength and stiffness of such members. In this paper, the bond …

When carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) is employed to reinforce the damaged steel
structures, the debonding problem existing at the interfaces between two materials can be …

Extensive research has been conducted on static bond behaviour between CFRP and steel.
However, very limited research is available on the effect of fatigue loading on the bond …

The interfacial bond-slip relationship between fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) and steel
plays an important role in analyzing FRP retrofitted steel structures. Different failure modes …

Carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) has shown promise for improving the fatigue
performance of steel structures. Previous studies have indicated that increasing the Young's …

The objective of this research is to develop a self-stressing patch using a combination of
shape memory alloys (SMAs) and fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites. Prestressed …

Strengthening steel structures using carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) materials has
attracted much attention in recent years owing to their potential for fatigue crack repair and …

While prestressed CFRP patches are considered as attractive alternatives to traditional
welding or bolting methods for enhancing the fatigue life of cracked steel structures, they …

This paper presents a critical characterization of the uncertainty of bond strength models of
adhesively bonded carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP)-to-steel joints. A model factor ε …

This paper presents the effectiveness of various retrofit techniques in improving the flexural
behavior of structural timber. For realistic representation with regard to site application …
