چکیده
The stability of lightweight space structures composed longitudinal thin-shell elements connected transversely by thin rods is investigated, extending recent work on the cylindrical and spherical shells. role localization in buckling these investigated early transitions into post-buckling regime are unveiled using a probe that locally displaces structure. Multiple locations studied force versus displacement curves analyzed plotted to assess structure’s stability. probing method enables computation energy input needed transition state, which central determining critical mechanism for A landscape finally mechanism. It gives insight structure existence localized states close vicinity fundamental equilibrium path.

Analysis of Thin-Walled Structures Using Torsional-Bending Elements
In this paper a new element for analysis of thin-walled structures is presented, and the effects of secondary shear stresses on longitudinal displacements are examined. Since the Interpolation Functions are based on non-uniform torsional differential equations, the analysis of stiffness matrix is facilitated. Therefore, its ability to produce accurate results with the least number of elements i...

متن کاملProbing the Probabilistic Effects of Imperfections on the Load Carrying Capacity of Flat Double-Layer Space Structures
Load carrying capacity of flat double-layer space structures majorly depends on the structures' imperfections. Imperfections in initial curvature, length, and residual stress of members are all innately random and can affect the load-bearing capacity of the members and consequently that of the structure. The double-layer space trusses are susceptible to progressive collapse due to sudden buckli...

متن کاملExperimental Investigations into the Collapse of Simple and Reinforced Thin-Walled Channel Beams under Bending Loads
In this paper, collapse behavior of simple and reinforced thin-walled channel- section beams, subjected to three- point bending, is investigated. Many simple channel- section beams of different geometry and some reinforced ones were tested, and their strengths after collapse were obtained thoroughly. Since the available theories in this area are complicated and little attention has been paid to...
