The study presents the simultaneous cost, topology and standard cross-section optimization of single storey industrial steel building structures. The considered structures are consisted from main portal frames, which are mutually connected with purlins. The optimization is performed by the Genetic algorithm (GA) approach. The proposed algorithm minimizes the structure’s material and labour cost...

This paper presents a new computational procedure for optimization of structures subjected to dynamic loads. The problem is formulated with discrete design variables that represent the members from table commercially available members. Also, requirements in American Institute Steel Construction (AISC) manual are as constraints. results nondifferentiable problem. In procedure, load transformed i...

This study presents the experimental and numerical investigations on structural steel-reinforced concrete (SRC) columns under combined axial lateral cyclic loadings. The main parameters evaluated are peak strength, mode of failure, hysteretic response, stiffness degradation, energy dissipation potential SRC columns. A parametric has been conducted using a finite element software ABAQUS to predi...

Steel Column Net (SCNet), a dataset of more than nine hundred experimental and numerical results deep wide flange (W-shape) columns with different attributes is compiled. Three failure modes are distinguished in SCNet: local, global, coupled while column rotation capacity expressed terms its cumulative inelastic until failure. The efficiency five machine learning (ML) classification models expl...
