CFJCPTSP with novel reinforced frames are manufactured by the water jet cutting and interlocking assembly method in this paper. The theoretical analysis is presented to predict the out-of-plane compressive stiffness and strength of CFJCPTSP at different ambient temperatures. The tests of composite sandwich panels are per- formed throughout the temperature range from -90℃ to 180℃. Good agreement is found between theo- retical predictions and experimental measurements. Experimental results indicate that the low tempera- ture increases the compressive stiffness and strength of CF/CPTSP. However, the high temperature causes the degradation of the compressive stiffness and strength. Meanwhile, the effects of temperature on the failure mode of composite sandwich panels are also observed.展开更多

The model considers the decline of mechanical properties and the effective section of a corroded steel bar,as well as the deterioration of bond character between corroded reinforcement and concrete. The reliability of the finite element model was evaluated by comparing the results of the finite element calculation with the data from experiments. Based on the finite element analysis results,the influence of corrosion degree,the diameter change of the longitudinal reinforcing bars and the spacing change of stirrups on the flexural stiffness were calculated and analyzed.展开更多

Substitution of concrete with ECC can significantly improve the seismic resistance and durability of the infrastructures. In this paper, it is proposed to use ECC as the matrix of frame columns for improving its load carrying capacity, ductility, and avoiding the brittleness of concrete. Based on the assumption of plane remaining plane and constitutive models of materials, theoretical models for calculating the load-carrying capacity of the steel reinforced ECC columns under small and large eccentric compression are proposed. With the parameters of the constitutive models from the existing experimental data, the relationship between ultimate axial load and moment capacities is also derived with the proposed models. To verify the validity of the proposed theoretical models, finite element analysis with the software of ATENA is conducted to simulate the mechanical behavior of the steel reinforced ECC columns under eccentric compressive loading. The calculation results from the theoretical models show good consistency with the simulated results, indicating that the proposed models are feasible and reliable for design. Finally, based on the theoretical models, the effect of the ultimate tensile strain and compressive strength of ECC, longitudinal reinforcement ratio on the load carrying capacity of the steel reinforced ECC column are comprehensively studied.展开更多
