Evaluation of jointed plain concrete pavement (JPCP) with FRP dowels
Objectives of this study are to evaluate FRP dowel bars as load transferring devices in JPCP under HS-25 static and fatigue loads and compare their response with JPCP consisting of steel dowels. Along with laboratory and field evaluations of JPCP with FRP and steel dowels, analytical modeling of …

Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis of FRP Strengthened RC Beams under Static and Cyclic Loads
Fibre reinforced Polymers (FRPs) are being used increasingly in enhancing reinforced concrete structures in civil constructions due to their superior characteristics. A large number of experimental and numerical studies have been carried out on FRP strengthened RC beams in recent decades. However, …
