A triangular model base on an investigation which has done by Sinha et al. has been developed for evaluating embedded crack localization in beam-column structures. In the assessment of this member’s behavior, the effects of displacement slope are necessary. In order to propose a crack localization method for embedded crack, an efficient static data based indicator is proposed for this crack in ...

latticed columns are frequently used in industrial steel structures. in some countries these built-up columns might be even used in other types of steel structures such as residential and commercial buildings. besides, latticed columns are parts of skeletons of many historic buildings all around the world. to analyze a steel structure with latticed columns a more accurate numerical model for su...

this paper describes experimental and numerical investigations on two specimens of frames composed of steel reinforced concrete beam and angle-steel concrete column under horizontal low cyclic loading. based on the test results, the relationship curves of the horizontal load-displacement and the failure modes are acquired. meanwhile the hysteretic behaviors, skeleton curves, stiffness degradati...

this article considers the seismic behavior of beam-to-column joints in steel frames for different bolt arrangements by using of finite element modeling. as the most important beam-to-column joint type, the beam-to-column joints with end-plate is chosen for the analysis. four different specimens have been analyzed. these models had some differences such as bolt arrangement and the presence or a...

In this paper mathematical formulation for buckling analysis of a column and vibrationanalysis of a beam is presented. The beam and the column is assumed to be non-uniform and cracked.Using calculus of variations, the problem is expressed as an optimization problem. A technique ofoptimization is used for analysis of buckling load. Considering the similarity between the governingequation for buc...

This study focuses on performance of H-shaped steel beams to CFT column rigid connections. To this end, the effects of internal and external stiffeners on hysteretic behavior of connections were studied. Comparative numerical analyses carried out on eight different connections. To this end finite element models were prepared using ANSYS and nonlinear cyclic analyses carried out. Results of this...
