Nonlinear Analysis of Stiffened Laminated Cylindrical Shells Using the Layerwise Theory of Reddy
The layerwise shell theory of Reddy is used to develop the buckling and the postbuckling equations of circular cylindrical shells reinforced by means of axial and ring stiffeners and subject...
Evaluation of Corroded Steel Chimneys
The paper is focused on the analysis of corroded steel chimneys. Cylindrical steel plates are exposed to thermal and chemical effects. The study is based on the results of extensive measurements...
Externally Stiffened I-Beam to Box-Column Connections
This paper is concerned with I-beam to Box-column connections stiffened externally. Experimental and theoretical findings on full-scale connection models are highlighted. The performance...
Development of Hardwood Glulam Timber Bridge Standards
Design standards and specification for 5.5 to 27.4 m(18 to 90 ft.) clear span hardwood glued laminated (glulam) highway bridges have been developed and are available from the Pennsylvania...
Analysis of Unstiffened and Stiffened Tubular Members Under External Pressure and Structural Loads
This paper summarizes some important results concerning the ultimate capacity of stiffened and unstiffened tubes under combined loading. Such tubes are candidates for use in offshore structures...
A Generalized Approach to the Local Stability of Stiffened Plates: Part I?Mathematical Formulation
The paper describes a generalized approach for the determination of the buckling stress of stiffened plates under combination of uniform biaxial compression, in-plane bending and shear...
A Generalized Approach to the Local Stability of Stiffened Plates: Part II?Approximate Solution
The paper presents an approximate solution for the prediction of the buckling stress of stiffened plates under combined loadings. A closed form expression is presented for the buckling...
Messeturm Tower: Frankfurt, Germany
A 256 meter (840 feet)tall office tower, currently the tallest building in Europe, has been constructed in Frankfurt Germany. The 7- story structure with 85500 square meter (920,000 square...
Active Control of Axial Forces in Beam String Space Frames
The present work discusses a formulation for active control of axial forces of strings in beam string structures to dynamically and/or statically reduce the responses, and proves both...
Structural Shape Analysis under the Prescribed Displacement Mode
Repair of a Cracked Cooling Tower Shell Based on Numerical Simulations
The present condition of a 30 years old cooling tower shell made of reinforced concrete is characterized by a relatively large number of long, thermally induced meridional cracks. For...
Stability Analysis of Stiffened Plates and Shells
A stability analysis of stiffened plates and shells by using degenerated finite elements is presented. The studies are based on a thin shell theory, large deflections, but on an elastic...
