Calibration of constitutive models of steel beams subject to local buckling by using Digital Image Correlation
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is proposed to identify the behavior of steel beams prior to and after the inception of local buckling by using Digital Image Correlation. Full field measurements are used to evaluate kinematic and static fields for determining constitutive laws. It enables for the detection of local buckling inception and the evaluation of the postbuckled behavior. Constitutive models are tuned by using measured Euler-Bernoulli kinematics.

DEVELOPMENT OF NEURAL NETWORK MODELS TO ESTIMATE LATERAL-DISTORTIONAL BUCKLING RESISTANCE OF CELLULAR STEEL BEAMS
The lateral-torsional buckling (LTB) strength of cellular steel girders that were subjected to web distortion was rarely examined. Since no formulation has been presented for predicting the capacity of such beams, in the current paper an extensive numerical investigation containing 660 specimens was modeled using finite element analysis (FEA) to consider the ultimate lateral-distortional buckli...
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...

Composite steel/concrete beams may buckle in hogging bending regions. As the top flange of I-beam in that arrangement is restricted from any translational deformation and twist, the web will distort during buckling presenting a phenomenon often described as restricted distortional buckling. There are limited studies available in the literature of restricted distortional buckling of composite st...

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 کاملNonlinear Uniaxial Material Model for Reinforcing Steel Bars
Recent advances in nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete structures have been based primarily on fiber-based discretization of the member cross section at locations of expected inelastic action. However, the accuracy of a fiber-section model is almost entirely dependent on the ability of constitutive material models to represent the overall inelastic behavior of the member. The postyield re...
