    (Elsevier, 2023) Fahem, Noureddine; Belaidi, Idir; Oulad Brahim, Abdelmoumin; Capozucca, Roberto; Thanh, Cuong Le; Khatir, Samir; Abdel Wahab, Magd M.
    In this paper, the best stacking sequence using experimental tests of GFRP composites is investigated. The main objective of this work is to determine the main specification of GFRP composite material, which is represented by its physics-mechanical properties, weight, and cost, before performing a series of experimental tests based on various stacking sequences. Our methodology is divided into three stages. The first stage is characterized by extracting the bending data from mechanical tests of some GFRP composites. In the second stage, the validated numerical model is used to simulate numerous cases of stacking sequences. In the last stage, the extracted data is used to determine the parameters for different stacking sequences using an inverse technique based on ANN and JAYA algorithm. The results provide a good prediction of parameters as well as a good orientation to make decisions on the best GFRP stacking sequence to be used, according to the required specifications of the manufacturer.

    Damage detection in GFRP composite structures by improved artificial neural network using new optimization techniques
    (Elsevier, 2023) Zara, Abdeldjebar; Belaidi, Idir; Khatir, Samir; Oulad Brahim, Abdelmoumin; Boutchicha, Djilali; Abdel Wahab, Magd
    Structural damage identification has been researched for a long time and continues to be an active research topic. This paper proposes the use of the natural frequencies of a novel composite structures made of glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP). The proposed methodology consists of an improved Artificial Neural Network (ANN) using optimization algorithms to detect the exact crack length. In the first step, the characterization of fabricated material is provided to determine Young's modulus using an experimental static bending test, tensile test and modal analysis test. Next, numerical validation is performed using commercial software ABAQUS to extract more data for different crack locations in the structure. The comparison between experimental and numerical results shows a good agreement. ANN has been improved using recent optimization techniques such as Jaya, enhanced Jaya (E-Jaya), Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) and Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm (AOA) to calibrate the influential parameters during training. After considering several scenarios, the results show that the accuracy of E-Jaya is better than other optimization techniques. This study on crack identification using improved ANN can be used to investigate the safety and soundness of composite structures

    Strength prediction of a steel pipe having a hemi-ellipsoidal corrosion defect repaired by GFRP composite patch using artificial neural network
    (Elsevier, 2023) Oulad Brahim, Abdelmoumin; Belaidi, Idir; Khatir, Samir; Le Thanh, Coung; Mirjalili, Seyedali; Magd, Abdel Wahab
    Local stress concentration occurs when faults are present in pipelines under pressure. An example of such defects is the problem of corrosion caused by the environment in the field of pipeline installation. In the first part of this paper, we attempt to model the corrosion in the hemi-ellipsoidal form in order to study the locations of stress concentration in the specimens by several experimental cases and their influence on the stress resistance. The Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman (GTN) mesoscopic damage model is used to simulate the specimens with good accuracy. In the second part, the investigation is extended to a pipe under static pressure with and without the presence of a glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) composite patch. The maximum stress and percent stress reduction in a defected pipe with a hemi-ellipsoidal defect are determined using a 3D finite element model. This part examines the impact of the geometry of the composite patches on the percentage reduction of the maximum stresses in a section of pipeline subjected to static pressure. In the third part, the stresses and the percentage reduction in the maximum stresses are predicted using an artificial neural network (ANN). An inverse problem using ANN and Jaya algorithm is proposed to predict the group level of different sizes of defects under composite patches based on the maximum stress and percentage reduction of stress that the pipe withstands. The new method relates directly to real-world pipeline construction and repair applications. It could be also used for structural safety monitoring

    Prediction of resisting force and tensile load reduction in GFRP composite materials using Artificial Neural Network-Enhanced Jaya Algorithm
    (Elsevier, 2023) Fahem, Noureddine; Belaidi, Idir; Oulad Brahim, Abdelmoumin; Noori, Mohammad; Khatir, Samir; Magd, Abdel Wahab
    This work presents an experimental and a numerical studies on the effect of the phenomenon of porosity on the mechanical properties of Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP). In a first part, material elaboration, as well as its characterization using a three-point bending test to extract the basic mechanical properties of the material, is considered. In a second part, a finite element model is created to simulate the problem of air bubbles broadly. Several cases of different shapes and sizes are simulated. The results show a significant effect on the reduction of load in both tensile and bending cases as the size of the bubbles increases. Furthermore, the second part includes the application of the Artificial Neural Network-Enhanced Jaya Algorithm (ANN-E JAYA) to predict the reduction of the tensile load as a function of different crack lengths obtained from an Extended Finite Element Method (XFEM) model. Next, to verify the accuracy of provided application, a comparison is made with two other applications such as Artificial Neural Network-Jaya Algorithm (ANN-JAYA) and Artificial Neural Network-Particle Swarm Optimization (ANN-PSO). The results of the three algorithms show good convergence, with a slight increase in accuracy for ANN-E JAYA.

    Sensitivity analysis of the gtn damage parameters at different temperature for dynamic fracture propagation in x70 pipeline steel using neural network
    (Gruppo Italiano Frattura, 2021) Abdelmoumin Ouladbrahim, Abdelmoumin; Belaidi, Idir; Khatir, Samir; Magagnini, Erica; Capozucca, Roberto; Wahab, Magd Abdel
    In this paper, the initial and maximum load was studied using the Finite Element Modeling (FEM) analysis during impact testing (CVN) of pipeline X70 steel. The Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman (GTN) constitutive model has been used to simulate the growth of voids during deformation of pipeline steel at different temperatures. FEM simulations results used to study the sensitivity of the initial and maximum load with GTN parameters values proposed and the variation of temperatures. Finally, the applied artificial neural network (ANN) is used to predict the initial and maximum load for a given set of damage parameters X70 steel at different temperatures, based on the results obtained, the neural network is able to provide a satisfactory approximation of the load initiation and load maximum in impact testing of X70 Steel
