Abstract: In this paper, a geometrically and materially nonlinear numerical model using ANSYS is validated against 13 lateral torsional buckling (LTB) experiments as well as experiments from the literature. A parametric study ...

Abstract: The strength of thin-walled stainless steel columns has been investigated extensively over the last few years. The present paper presents the results of an extensive computational study of the buckling strength of ...

Abstract: In this paper, an experimental program is presented consisting of 13 experiments on welded stainless steel I-profile beams subjected to lateral torsional buckling, in which 11 specimens are made of the lean duplex stainless ...

Abstract: An experimental and numerical study of ferritic stainless steel tubular cross sections under combined loading is presented in this paper. Two square hollow section (SHS) sizes—SHS

Abstract: An experimental and numerical study of ferritic stainless steel tubular cross sections under combined loading is presented in this paper. Two square hollow section (SHS) sizes—SHS 40×40×2 and SHS 50×50×2 made of Grade EN ...

Abstract: This paper presents a series of 48 full-scale tests on press-braked stainless steel lipped channel section columns subjected to concentric compression. The tests were carried out between fixed ends in the Structures ...

Abstract: This paper provides a critical summary of the European standards and design methods available for calculating the strength of cold-formed stainless steel compression members. The standards considered (so far mainly applied ...
