Some Computational Capabilities for Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis
In recent years it has been recognized to an increasing extent that the capability of performing effective linear and nonlinear analysis can be a very important asset in the design of structures. A particularly important area in which nonlinear analysis must be carried out is the design of nuclear power generating plants [1 ]. The safety of a structure may be increased and the cost reduced if a...
متن کاملAnalysis of Masonry Infill Panels Retrofitted with FRP Sheets in R/C Frames
Masonry infill walls are often used as non-structural elements. According to the past structural failure, ignorance of interaction between infill walls and enclosed frame may lead to the different seismic response for non-ductile building frames. The main contribution of this paper is to analytically investigate the behavior of reinforced concrete with masonry infill panels as participating str...
متن کاملStatic Analysis of Railway Overheads Considering Pantograph Effect
This article is concerned with the static analysis of structural cables used in railway overheads. Structural analysis computer program named ANSYS is used for analysis. Two effects are considered in the analysis. First one is the bending behavior effect of cables. BEAM188 in addition to LINK10 and LINK180 is used to see the difference in case of additional bending effect. Besides, LINK10 and L...
