Numerical Study on Residual Thermal Stresses in Carbon Fibre Pullout

This paper investigated the effect of residual thermal stresses on carbon fibre pullout by using cohesive zone modelling. The finite element method was applied to analyse the residual thermal stress components along the interface between the fibre and matrix due to curing. A comparison study on the anisotropic and isotropic material properties are considered using four typical carbon fibres, T3...

Inclined Fiber Pullout from a Cementitious Matrix: A Numerical Study

It is well known that fibers improve the performance of cementitious composites by acting as bridging ligaments in cracks. Such bridging behavior is often studied through fiber pullout tests. The relation between the pullout force vs. slip end displacement is characteristic of the fiber-matrix interface. However, such a relation varies significantly with the fiber inclination angle. In the curr...

A numerical study on carbon nanotube–hybridized carbon fibre pullout

Quasi-Static Numerical Simulation of Missile Staging

In this study, the missile staging process by implementing a side-injected jet is simulated numerically. The problem is considered to be axisymmetric and the thin shear layer approximation of Navier-Stokes equations along with an algebraic turbulence model is used in a quasi-static form for the calculations. The free stream corresponds to a very high altitude flight condition with a Mach number...

Numerical investigation on the pullout shear strength of soil-nail interface using finite element method

Soil nailing is a popular reinforcement method for stabilizing slopes, excavations, and retaining walls in many countries. The pullout capacity of the soil-nail interface is a critical parameter for the design and safety assessment of soil-nailed systems. In this paper, a three-dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) model is developed using the commercial program ABAQUS to simulate the pullout te...
