Descrição

In this paper the numerical FEM model developed to simulate the behaviour of the NSM strengthening system for concrete elements is presented. The plane model introduces the non linear bond law of the system by an interface element between the composite reinforcement and the concrete considered linear. The results of two experimental programs are analysed and used to calibrate the parameters of the bond shear-slip relationship by means the numerical model. The procedure is based on the inverse analysis of the experimental data in order to have the better fitting of the global pull-out load-displacement curves.
