Instances of mixed buckling and post-buckling of steel RHS beams
نویسندگان
چکیده
Simply supported steel beams with rectangular hollow section (RHS) are investigated, taking into account large twist and cross-sections distortions. A closed-form expression for the critical value of external couple inducing lateral torsional buckling is found; homotopy perturbation method (HPM) used to investigate post-buckling non-linear path. The linear paths given by HPM compared those of: i) a Newton–Raphson algorithm arc length; ii) commercial FEM code Abaqus. Some numerical examples presented.

Buckling and Post-buckling Analysis of FG-CNTRC Beams: An Exact Closed Form Solution
The present work derives the exact analytical solutions for buckling and post-buckling analysis of nano-composite beams reinforced by single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and principle of virtual work. The reinforcements are considered to be aligned in the polymeric matrix either unifor...
متن کاملThermal buckling and post-buckling of FGM Timoshenko beams on nonlinear elastic foundation
Buckling and post-buckling thermomechanical deformations of a functionally graded material (FGM) Timoshenko beam resting on a two-parameter nonlinear elastic foundation and subjected to only a temperature rise have been numerically investigated with the shooting method. The material properties are assumed to vary only in the thickness direction according to a power law function. Through-the-thi...
متن کاملLocal Buckling Tests on Cold-Formed Steel Beams
C and Z sections are two of the most common cold-formed steel shapes in use today. Accurate prediction of the bending performance of these sections is important for reliable and efficient cold-formed steel structures. Recent analytical work has highlighted discontinuities and inconsistencies in the American Iron and Steel Institute ~AISI! and Canadian Standards Association ~S136! design provisi...
متن کاملDistortional Buckling Tests on Cold-Formed Steel Beams
Failure in cold-formed steel beams is generally initiated by one of three instabilities: local, distortional, or lateral-torsional buckling. For cold-formed steel joists, purlins, or girts, when the compression flange is not restrained by attachment to sheathing or paneling, distortional buckling may be the predominant failure mode. Experimental results on cold-formed steel beams with unrestrai...
متن کاملDiscontinuous Buckling of Wide Beams and Metabeams.
We uncover how nonlinearities dramatically alter the buckling of elastic beams. First, we show experimentally that sufficiently wide ordinary elastic beams and specifically designed metabeams-beams made from a mechanical metamaterial-exhibit discontinuous buckling, an unstable form of buckling where the postbuckling stiffness is negative. Then we use simulations to uncover the crucial role of n...
