Abstract: This paper describes a test program on full-scale fabricated simply supported I-beams with central concentrated load and an effective lateral brace at the midspan of the top compression flange that was performed mainly ...

Abstract: Large and small cylindrical shells have long been used as tanks and silos to store materials such as oil and its derivatives. The radius-to-thickness ratio of these shells is 500∶2000; as a result, buckling collapse of ...
