Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this thesis is to quantify the bond & slip behavior of deformed fiber reinforced polymer rods made of carbon (CFRP) & glass (GFRP) with concrete using the data from a set of experiments conducted previously. These experiments involved a modified form of the standard pullout tests with the goal to minimize the confining action due to the surrounding concrete being in compression. This is shown by performing a finite element simulation of the experimental setup. Then a numerical study is performed to compare the experimental results with some of the bond parameter given in ACI 440.3R-04. This is followed by analytical modeling of bond slip law of GFRP which involves rigorous computational analysis and finding the unknown parameters of the adopted m-BEP model so as to predict the applied pullout force and its consequent loaded end slip to compare with the experimental data.
