Fracture-based interface model for NSM FRP systems in concrete

This paper introduces a numerical simulation tool using the Finite Element Method (FEM) for near-surface mounted (NSM) strengthening technique using fibre reinforced polymers (FRP) applied to concrete elements. In order to properly simulate the structural behaviour of NSM FRP systems there are th...
