Abstract: Elastic flexural buckling formulas for columns under an end‐concentrated load and axial uniformly distributed load (or selfweight) found in the literature or newly derived by the writers, are summarized herein. However, ...

Abstract: This paper presents an automated Rayleigh‐Ritz method for the elastic buckling analysis of doubly symmetric I‐beams subjected to arbitrary loading conditions. Moreover, the beams may have various types of end‐supporting ...

Abstract: The computation of the effectiveness factor for spherical shells, employing Michaelis-Menten kinetics or its more general form, which incorporates the effect of substrate inhibition, involves solving a steady-state continuity ...

Abstract: Long‐term deflection of statically determinate reinforced concrete beams under service loads is analytically studied. The BP‐2 creep and shrinkage model is adopted and extended to accommodate concrete tensile behavior by ...

Abstract: The effect of uncertainty in the system parameters on the reliability of domestic-waste biofilm reactors is investigated. Based on typical ranges and default values reported in published literature, a representative set ...
