In this research we will detail the comparative structural analysis of a gantry, using method flexibility manually and SAP2000 software, develop design high certainty calculations so that results obtained do not have much difference. The article is oriented to comparison by different methods manual or also known as traditional method, mainly flexibilities "SOFTWARE SAP2000" which currently prog...

This paper presents nonlinear elastic dynamic analysis of 3-D semi-rigid steel frames including geometric and connection nonlinearities. The geometric nonlinearity is considered by using stability functions and updating geometric stiffness matrix. The nonlinear behavior of the steel beam-to-column connection is considered by using a zero-length independent connection element comprising of six t...

Analysis of the free and forced vibration responses beams is one most critical problems to be examined in design step these structural members. The finite-element method which solves boundary value can applied efficiently problems. In this study, natural frequency damped undamped transient analyses pinned-pinned are investigated. well-known software packages, ANSYS SAP2000, used. 2-D elastic be...

In this study, the monotonic and hysteretic behavior of poorly detailed reinforced concrete (RC) columns under lateral loads is simply modeled by SAP2000. It has been shown in literature that flexural, reinforcement slip shear deformations contributed to deformation. The responses RC due each these deformations, were determined. Under pushover loading, summed up create column. load-deformation ...

After analyzing the existing simplified methods of ship-bridge collision and comparing their pros and cons, a relatively safe simplified analysis process is put forward. The time-history curve of the ship collision force obtained from the ship-rigid wall collision simulation using the software LS-DYNA is put into the whole bridge dynamic model in SAP2000 and then dynamic response analysis of th...

Approximate methods of analysis are essential tools at the preliminary design phase of any building project. For multi-story multi-bay lateral-force-swayed frames, the available classical approximate methods are the Portal and the Cantilever techniques. It is known that the Portal method gives more accurate results for low to medium rise frames. This investigation showed that it is possible to ...

This paper discusses the size and shape optimization of a guyed radio mast for radiocommunications. The considered structure represents widely industrial solution due to recent spread 5G 6G mobile networks. was modeled with finite element software SAP2000 optimized through genetic algorithm (GA). exploits open application programming interfaces (OAPI) SAP2000-Matlab. Static dynamic analyses wer...
