Abstract: Based on the displacement variational principle, this paper presents a general consistent method, called the spline finite member element method, for buckling analysis of thin-walled eccentric compressive members with ...

Abstract: In this paper, a general method, called the spline finite member element method, is developed for spatial buckling analysis of thin-walled eccentric compressive members with arbitrary cross sections, considering warping. ...

Abstract: Based on the curvilinear coordinate system, the spline finite strip method is extended to the elasto‐static analysis of circular and noncircular box‐girder bridges. As the curvature effect cannot be ignored, the webs of ...

Abstract: The spline finite strip method was developed recently as a complement to the semi‐analytical finite strip method in dealing with problems involving mixed boundary conditions, concentrated loads, and continuous spans. In ...
