Abstract: The Southwell method for the prediction of buckling loads is applied to results obtained from tests of two 16-in-dia Type 304 stainless steel elbows loaded by an in-plane closing bending moment ...

Abstract: Numerical results based on the STAGSC-1 finite element computer program are presented for the geometrically nonlinear behavior of cylindrical shells subjected to inward-directed radial point loads. ...

Abstract: Analytical and experimental results are presented for the axisymmetric plastic buckling of axially compressed cylinders made from strain hardening materials. Buckling loads predicted by two simple ...

Abstract: Predictions obtained from simplified and detailed MARC analyses are compared with experimental results for the elastic-plastic and creep behavior of a 16-in-dia 304 stainless steel piping structure ...

Abstract: Predictions obtained from a simplified finite element analysis are compared with experimental results on the plastic in-plane bending and buckling of a 16-in-dia Type 304 stainless steel piping ...
