| Summary: | To evaluate the seismic performance of reinforced concrete (RC) columns strengthened with textile-reinforced concrete (TRC), based on the ABAQUS numerical analysis results of 15 TRC-strengthened RC columns, the grey correlation theory was used to determine the input variables of the model, and the accuracy of the numerical simulation results is verified by some experiments. Then, according to FEM data, a neural network prediction model was established for the displacement ductility coefficients of TRC-strengthened columns, and a formula was proposed for calculating the displacement ductility coefficient. The results showed that the BP (backpropagation) neural network model had good rationality and accuracy and that the ductility coefficients of the strengthened columns calculated by the model agreed well with the experimental values. Therefore, the model can be applied for predicting the displacement ductility coefficients of TRC-strengthened columns and can be used as a reference for engineering design. |
