Failure Analysis of Locally Damaged Slender Steel Bars Strengthened with CFRP Composites: Experiments, Theory, and Computational Simulations by Bin Li, Hua Luo, Xianqiao Wang

“…Our theoretical analysis provides an upper bound for the critical force, which is sensitive not only to the damage degree but also to the damage location. Damage locating at the middle regime of the specimens will remarkably reduce stability of the steel bars, but an optimized combination of wrapping method and number of CFRP layers can restore and even enhance the stability of the damaged structures beyond the undamaged counterparts. …”
