Time-dependent buckling phenomena of polysilicon micro beams have been demonstrated and reported. These beams are suspended 2 mm above the silicon substrate with dimensions of 100 mm (length) × 2 mm (width) × 2 mm (thickness). When a constant input current is supplied at or above a threshold value, electro-thermally induced buckling occurs. It is observed and recorded that the beams exhibit tim...

Pattern transformation in periodic microporous elastoplastic solid coatings is caused by a buckling of the struts and a rotation of the nodes under compressive stresses. The results of a nonlinear numerical investigation confirm the critical role of the bifurcation of the periodic solid under compressive stresses. In striking contrast to the earlier observations of elastic instabilities in poro...

When a steel moment-resisting frame deforms horizontally, H-shaped beams are subjected to the flexural moment gradient. Generally, rigidly connected box section columns possessing large fork restraint. Further, continuous braces on top flange effectively prevent lateral buckling. In this paper, buckling behavior of continuously braced with restraint under gradient is clarified theoretically and...

Abstract   In this paper elastoplastic buckling of rectangular plates with different boundary conditions are investigated. Differential governing equations of plate are obtained on the basis of general loading and according to deformation theory (DT) of plasticity. Various loading conditions contain uniaxial, biaxial and shear are studied. The employed material is AL7075T6 which is usually used...

In recent years, seismic design of structures has been undergoing significant changes due to increasing demand for optimization and minimizing the level of damage and reducing the cost of structural repairs. Development of analytical methods and remarkable improvements of computer performance have been among the factors which influenced the design of structures. A lot of research has been condu...

In this paper we formulate the equilibrium equation for a beam made of graphene subjected to some boundary conditions and acted upon by axial compression and nonlinear lateral constrains as a fourth-order nonlinear boundary value problem. We first study the nonlinear eigenvalue problem for buckling analysis of the beam. We show the solvability of the eigenvalue problem as an asymptotic expansio...

a comparison between design codes i.e. aci and aisc-lrfd in evaluation of flexural strength of concrete filled steel tubular columns (cfts) is examined. for this purpose an analytical study on the response of cfts under axial-flexural loading is carried using three-dimensional finite elements with elasto-plastic model for concrete with cracking and crushing capability and elastoplastic kinemati...
