Methods in Modelling of Composite Materials with Microstructure
(University of Waterloo, 2022-08-12)Composite material properties are dependent on their microstructure. To adequately model these materials, a revised formulation of elasticity that accounts for microstructural effects must be considered. Size dependent ... -
Numerical Analysis of Debonding Mechanisms of Externally Bonded FRP Reinforcement in RC Beams
(University of Waterloo, 2018-04-16)There is an urgent need to develop economic and efficient methods to repair and strengthen existing reinforced concrete structures. This demand is motivated by several factors including the aging of concrete structures, ... -
Stress Intensity Factor for a Crack Embedded in an Infinite Matrix under the Assumption of Plane Micropolar Elasticity
(University of Waterloo, 2016-09-27)In last few decades, studies on defining mechanical behaviour of materials with significant microstructure have increased drastically. This is due to the lack of compatibility between the experimental data of mechanical ...
