“…The authors reported, all damage strengthened specimens under combined loading cases exhibited increase in load carrying capacity of specimen whereas energy absorption capacity and ductility ratios were reduced significantly. Zhao et al [22] developed a numerical model to investigate the behavior of RC columns retrofitted with various FRPs composites such as CFRP, GFRP, and AFRP as external jacketing material for RC columns under blast loads. The authors reported among the three FRP types, CFRP performed well in enhancing blast resistance capacity of RC column.…”
