ANFIS Based Modelling of CFRP Confined Concrete Columns under Axial Compression

This paper presents the results of Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) based model for Reinforced circular columns strengthened with Carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets. The main objective of this paper is to propose ANFIS based model for predicting the performance characteristics of CFRP strengthened RC columns and to compare it with the experimental results. ANFIS uses neural network for computing the numerical results of functions and fuzzy logic for making decisions based on the resulting values. The ANFIS predicted results show good agreement with the experimental test results.
