Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis for the Flexural Behavior of Concrete Beams Reinforced with CFRP-PCPs Composite Rebars

The nonlinear finite element analysis for the flexural behavior of the concrete beams reinforced with CFRP-PCPs Composite Rebars,which was a new structural form, has been studied in ANSYS. The effects of material nonlinearities of concrete £¬steel rebar £¬CFRP rebar were considered in the analytic model. Load-displacement curves were received through calculation in this paper. Compared the present result with the experimental results has proved that the model provided is correct and convenient for the analysis of the beams.
