In this study, the behavior characteristics of I beam-to-concrete filled tube (CFT) column connection is studied through experiment and finite element models under the monotonic loading. To validate the finite element modeling, at first, an experimental model is made and experimented. After validation of the finite element modeling, different models were created in the software. The studied par...

hysteretic dampers as the most practical passive control methods have improved the seismic performance of steel structures through energy dissipation induced by large inelastic deformations. among them in this paper, kbf (knee braced frames), a special form of braced frames having a diagonal brace connected to a knee element instead of beam-column joint, is investigated. in such systems, the kn...

background: the salvage proximal femoral osteotomy is performed in mild or moderate osteoarthritis when the articulating surfaces are normal and relieves the subject’s pain. because the importance of angular mal-alignment of the femur bone at the hip junction accurate pre-op planning based on patient specific anatomy is required to prevent any lower limb misalignment and joint problem pre-opera...

Evaluation of the excavation-induced ground movements is an important design aspect of supporting system in urban areas. This evaluation process is more critical to the old buildings or sensitive structures which exist in the excavation-affected zone. Frame distortion and crack generation are predictor, of building damage resulted from excavation-induced ground movements, which pose challenges ...

in this paper, a three-dimensional finite element model has been developed to simulate the laser-tig hybrid welding (hlaw) of stainless steel 1.4418 with thickness of 4 mm. transient temperature profile and dimensions of the fusion zone and heat affected zone (haz) during welding process are calculatedusing finite element method (fem) and were solved in the abaqus/standard software.the heat sou...

In a unified approach, the virtual work equations in rate form and in incremental forms are derived rigorously for elastic-plastic continuum subjected to large strains. T h e finite element p r d u r e s for the analyses of clastic-plastic solid b a d on Lee’s theory and the Green-Naghdi theory arc presented. Also, i t i s shown that transformations can be performed among the Eulerian, the Tota...

the use of structural adhesives in automotive structures has been increased recently for their role in noise, vibration and harshness (nvh). therefore, the dynamic behavior of structures containing bonded joints has become an area with numerous investigations over the past decades. development of accurate formulations capable of representing adhesively bonded joint dynamics is a step forward in...
