Analysis of interfacial thermal stresses for damaged structures: new theoretical model

摘要

The use of the composites for the reinforcement of the beams and structures metallic and non-metallic, is one of the recent methods of the rehabilitation by composites, what permits to replace the classic techniques of the assembly based on soldering, bonding, etc. But this technique gives stresses concentrations to the level of the zone of the assembly. The methods of rehabilitation by composites permit to prolong the life span of these structures under a reduced exploitation cost and with less pollution to the environment. In this article, an original survey on the stresses between the structure and the composite (fiber reinforced polymer [FRP]) was finalized, taking account, as well, of the mechanical and thermal loadings, as well as the effects of deformation shear lag. This originality puts in evidence a new theoretical model which takes into account the thermal effect of the stresses concentration that has not been treated seriously by the previous studies.
