The classical buckling theory assumes that prebuckling behavior is linear and that the effect of prebuckling deformations on buckling can be ignored. However, when the rise to span ratio decreases, prebuckling deformation cannot be ignored and the symetrical buckling strength can be smaler than the asymetrical buckling strength. Finally, arches can fail due to snap-through buckling. This paper investigates the non-linear behavior and strength of pin-ended parabolic shallow arches using the non-linear governing differential equation of shallow arches. These results were compared with the solution for the symmetrical buckling load of pin-ended parabolic shallow arches was suggested.

The purpose of this paper is to provide and verify an analytical method, based on the spline finite strip method, which can be used to investigate the buckling mode and stress of thin-walled steel sections. Geometric imperfection and initial stress of plates and plate assemblies, which are resulted from various preloadings and may cause prebuckling deformations before buckling, are included in the analysis. Material nonlinearity and residual stress are also considered. It can be applied to sections with simple or non-simple boundary conditions and arbitrary loading. The method has been applied to investigate the buckling behavior of plates and plate assemblies which are subjected to compression with initial imperfections and residual stresses.

The effects of prebuckling on the buckling of laminated composite cylindrical shells are investigated. Both axial compression and lateral pressure are considered for laminated composite cylindrical shells with length to radius ratios usually associated with container vessels. The shell walls are made of a laminate with several symmetric ply orientations. The study was made using finite difference energy method, utilizing the nonlinear bifurcation branch with nonlinear prebuckling displacements. The results are compared to the buckling loads determined when prebuckling displacements are neglected.

This paper presents an investigation of the structural stability of cable-stayed bridges in the construction stage, using geometric nonlinear finite-element analysis and considering various geometric nonlinearities, such as the sag effect of the cables, the P-${\Delta}$ effects of the girder and mast, and the large displacement effect. Initial shape analysis and construction-stage analysis were performed to determine the equilibrium of the structure in the construction stage. After that, geometric nonlinear analysis was performed to study structural stability. In this study, the weight of the derrick crane and the key segment were considered the main external loads, which were applied to the tip of the center span. The cable arrangement type and the stiffness ratios of the girder and mast were considered the main parameters of the analytic research. Based on the results of the analysis, the change in the buckling mode and critical load factors with respect to the cable arrangement type and the stiffness ratios of the girder and mast was investigated. The buckling modes of the steel cable-stayed bridges in the construction stage were classified, and the ranges of the stiffness ratios of the girder and mast, which show these classified buckling modes, were suggested.

In this paper, we described a co-rotational formulation for the geometrical nonlinear analysis of three-dimensional frames. We suggested a new concept called the Zero-Twist-Section Condition (ZTSC) to decide the element coordinate system consistently. According to the ZTSC procedure, it is possible to obtain an element coordinate system and natural deformations consistently when finite displacements and rotations are induced in an element. Based on the developed procedure, numerical examples are investigated to calculate natural rotations while finite displacements are imposed on an element. Also, the developed co-rotational procedure gives accurate results in the analysis of post-buckling problems with finite rotations.

This paper presents an investigation of the structural stability of cable-stayed bridges, using geometric nonlinear finite-element analysis and considering various geometric nonlinearities, such as the sag effect of the cables, the beam-column effect of the girder and mast, and the large displacement effect. In this analytic research, a nonlinear frame element and a nonlinear equivalent truss element were used to model the girder, mast, and cable member. The live-load cases that were considered in this research were assumed based on the traffic loads. To perform reasonable analytic research, initial shape analyses in the dead-load case were performed before live-load analysis. In this study, the geometric nonlinear responses of the cable-stayed bridges with different cable arrangement types were compared. After that, parametric studies on the characteristics of the structural stability in critical live-load cases were performed considering various geometric parameters, such as the cable arrangement type, the stiffness ratios of the girder and mast, the area of the cables, and the number of cables. Through this parametric study, the effect of geometric shapes on the structural stability of cable-stayed bridges was investigated.

Behavioral characteristics of shallow circular arches with dynamic loading and different end conditions are analysed. Geometric nonlinearity is modelled using Lagrangian description of the motion. The finite element analysis procedure is used to solve the dynamic equation of motion, and the Newmark method is adopted in the approximation of time integration. The behavior of arches is analysed using the buckling criterion and non-dimensional time, load and shape parameters which Humphreys suggested. But a new deflection-ratio formula including the effect of horizontal displacement plus vertical displacement is presented to apply for the non-symmetric buckling problems. Through the model analysis, it's confirmed that fix-ended arches have higher buckling stability than hinge-ended arches, and arches with the same shape parameter have the same deflection ratio at the same time parameter when loaded with the same parametric load.

현재 일반적으로 활용되고 있는 원통형 쉘구조로 이루어진 타워구조의 대형화가 추진되면서 제작, 운반 편의성, 단면효율성, 경제성 제고를 위해 다각형단면 기둥구조물의 활용이 대두되고 있다. 하지만 다각형 단면 기둥구조의 극한강도에 대한 자료가 충분치 않고 관련 기준이나 지침이 명확히 제시되고 있지 않은 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 원통형 쉘구조물을 다각형구조물로 대체하여 제작될 경우 축방향 압축에 대한 내하력 향상 효과를 수치해석적으로 검토해 보고자 한다. 해석모델은 지름 2m, 두께 20mm인 원형강관 프로토타입 풍력타워 구조를 참고로 하여 이에 내접하도록 결정한 6~12각형 단면 형상으로써 높이 10,000mm인 3차원 기둥모델을 구현하였고 유한요소프로그램인 ABAQUS를 이용하여 해석하였다. 각 subpanel의 중앙에 종방향 보강재를 설치하였을 때 국부좌굴에 대한 내하력 변화를 비교하기 위해 종방향보강재로 보강한 모델을 구성하여 비교 해석을 수행하였다. 종방향 보강재의 제원은 미국 SSRC 제안식을 기준으로 삼았다. 탄성좌굴해석을 통해 탄성좌굴모드 형상을, 비선형비탄성해석을 통해 최종파괴모드 및 극한강도를 얻었다. 보강 전 후의 탄성좌굴 해석 결과로부터 최소모드의 고유치 값을 비교하였다. 각 subpanel 단면 중심부에 한 개의 보강재를 설치한 경우 탄성좌굴강도가 4배 가량 증가하였다. 이로부터, 보강재(n=1) 설치에 따라 유효 폭두께비가 1/2로 감소하는 효과를 확인 할 수 있다. 비선형해석결과로부터 subpanel의 단면중심에 보강재를 설치한 경우 보강재가 위치한 곳에 고정점이 형성되어 이를 중심으로 국부 좌굴모드에 변화가 생기는 것이 확인되었다. 이러한 변화는 다각형 단면 기둥구조의 내하력 성능, 즉 국부좌굴강도에 영향을 준다. 충분한 강성을 갖는 종방향 보강재가 설치된 경우, 극한상태에서도 유효폭두께비가 줄어드는 것과 같은 강도 향상 효과를 확인할 수 있다. 이러한 사실은 각 해석결과 극한강도를 DIN code, Migita와 Fukumoto의 제안식, SSRC 설계제안식 등과의 비교를 통해 확인할 수 있었다.
