RISNew Guidelines for Fatigue Design of HSS Connections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The current specifications for fatigue design of hollow structural section (HSS) connections are both outdated, and, in view of recent research results fairly inaccurate. Analyses of a large number of connections have been ...
Static Strength of Thick-Walled CHS X-Joints Subjected to Brace Moment Loadings
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents results from a systematic finite-element (FE) study on the static strength of moment loaded thick-walled circular hollow section (CHS) X-joints, and compares the results with CIDECT and ISO/CD 13819-2 ...
Static Strength of Axially Loaded Elliptical Hollow Section X Joints with Braces Welded to Wide Sides of Chord. II: Parametric Study and Strength Equations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A research program consisting of experimental tests and finite-element (FE) analyses has been carried out to study the behavior and static strength of axially loaded elliptical hollow section (EHS) X joints of two ...
Static Strength of Axially Loaded Elliptical Hollow Section X Joints with Braces Welded to Wide Sides of Chord. I: Numerical Investigations Based on Experimental Tests
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Experimental tests and subsequent finite-element (FE) calibration studies were conducted to study the static strength of axially loaded X joints between elliptical hollow sections (EHS) with braces welded to the wide sides ...
Simulation of Ductile Fracture of Circular Hollow Section Joints Using the Gurson Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Numerical modeling of the fracture effects on the strength of steel circular hollow section joints has not been sufficiently addressed historically. The Gurson model simulates the plastic yield behavior of material with ...
