Concrete-filled fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) tubes (CFFTs) have emerged as a promising structural solution due to their exceptional strength, durability, corrosion resistance and seismic performance. However, accurately predicting the cyclic flexural performance of CFFTs, especially with variations in fiber orientation of the FRP shell, remains a significant challenge. Experimental studies show that fiber orientation influences the confinement effects and overall axial and flexural behavior of CFFTs. Despite advancements in understanding these effects, a gap exists in validated analytical models capable of simulating the nonlinear cyclic behavior and predicting hysteretic responses. This study addresses this gap by developing a fiber element model in OpenSees to evaluate the performance of CFFT elements with angled fibers under cyclic flexural loading. Widely accepted confinement models, including both the hoop-oriented model and angled-fiber-specific models were assessed for their accuracy in predicting the ultimate capacities of CFFTs. The hysteretic behavior of confined concrete was modeled using the “Concrete02” material, which, while not explicitly accounting for the cyclic damage of concrete, was calibrated, and validated against experimental data from the literature to accurately capture the observed performance. The results provide valuable insights into the effects of fiber orientation on CFFT behavior and highlight the applicability of different confinement models for practical design purposes.
