Abstract: The effect of external hydrostatic pressure on the strength and behavior of fabricated steel tubular members is studied. The axial force is considered to be produced only by the applied external force but not by the pressure ...

Abstract: Behavior of fabricated tubular steel beam‐columns as commonly used in offshore structures is studied for the entire range of monotonic loading up to ultimate load including the post‐buckling branch of unloading, using ...

Abstract: The nonlinear finite element technique is used to analyze beam‐to‐column moment connections. In case of flange moment connections, a full scale assembly of the connection has been considered for predicting the load‐deflection ...

Abstract: Reinforced concrete columns with annular section, called R.C. pipe columns, have frequently been used in building construction. Because of the centrifugal process of making concrete pipes and the difference in arranging ...

Abstract: TO avoid the complication in the calculation of progressive failure using the stress‐strain approach, and the inaccuracy of using the pseudo‐static analysis in seismic slope stability analysis, it is desirable to develop ...

Abstract: Pumping prediction models are important in the design and economic analysis of rigid pavements. A review of several pumping models, as well as the one developed by the writers, is presented in this paper. Pumping modeling ...
