Ultimate Collapse Strength Assessment of Damaged Steel-Plated Structures

In an unpredictable world where human intervention or unexpected environmental conditions can prevail, damage can occur to manmade structures. Whilst structural design allows for redundancy, or a structural capability beyond the general working load of the structure, it is necessary to be able to analyse and understand the residual capability of a damaged structure to ensure the safety of perso...

Ultimate Collapse Strength Assessment of Damaged Steel Plated Grillages

Across many industries damage events leading to a breach in structural integrity continue to occur. An area where this can lead to particularly unsafe conditions is in the maritime environment, where it may be difficult to rescue crew and cargo. In order to improve structural safety through design for the survivability or to assess the residual strength of a damaged vessel in an emergency respo...

Ultimate Behavior of Composite Castellated Beams under Vertical Loads

The aim of this paper is to carry out extensive numerical investigations about the effect of various parameters on both buckling loads and ultimate behavior of continuous partially composite castellated beams under vertical loads. Efficient nonlinear 3D Finite Element Model using ABAQUS software is developed. The initial geometric imperfection and material nonlinearities were carefully consider...
