A tubular member with through-gusset plate is often used to transmit axial compression in an electric transmission towers. In current code, the strength of tubular member is evaluated with an effective length factor k=0.9 without considering the deformation of boundary element. A buckling strength of member with end gusset plate is affected by stiffness ratio($\beta$) and the length ratio(G) between main tubular member and end gusset plate. In this study theoretical mechanism based on the elastic buckling behavior was investigated, and finite element analysis was performed to propose a formula for the buckling strength and effective length factor of tubular member in elsatic and inelastic ranges.

This study investigated the inelastic lateral-torsional buckling of simply supported beams under a central concentrated load and a uniformly distributed load. A line-type finite element, method was incorporated with the "so-called" simplified and polynomial patterns of residual stresses. The effect of the load height was also considered in this study. The polynomial residual stresses assumed in this study was a quartic distribution in the flange and a parabolic distribution in the web. The inelastic lateral-torsional buckling of beam was analyzed with four different I-sections manufactured in Korea. Results obtained in this study were compared with KSDM(design method in the 1995 Korean Steel Designers' Manual). The design method in KSDM was found to be generally conservative with and without a sub-beam attached to the main beam, which acted as an intermediate restraint.

When arch ribs are subjected to vertical loading, they may buckle suddenly towards the in-plane direction. Therefore, the designer should consider their in-plane stability. In this paper, the in-plane elastic and inelastic buckling strength of parabolic, fixed arch ribs subjected to vertical distributed loading were investigated using the finite element method. A finite element model for the snap-through and inelastic behavior of arch ribs was verified using other researchers' test results. The ultimate strength of arch ribs was determined by taking into account their large deformation, material inelasticity, and residual stress. Finally, the finite element analysis results were compared with the EC3 design code.

Practical stability design method of main members of cable-stayed bridges is proposed and discussed through a design example. For this purpose, initial tensions of stay cables and axial forces of main members are firstly determined using initial shaping analysis of bridges under dead loads. And then the effective buckling length using system elastic/inelastic buckling analysis and bending moments considering $P-{\delta}-{\Delta}$ effect by second-order elastic analysis are calculated for main girder and pylon members subjected to both axial forces and moments, respectively. Particularly, three load combinations of dead and live loads, in which maximum load effects due to live loads are obtained, are taken into account and effects of live loads on effective buckling lengths are investigated.

This paper briefly describes the fundamental strategies--path-tracing, pin-pointing, and path-switching--in the computational elastic bifurcation theory of geometrically non-linear single-load-parameter conservative elastic spatial structures. The stability points in the non-linear elasticity may be classified into limit points and bifurcation points. For the limit points, the path tracing scheme that successively computes the regular equilibrium points on the equilibrium path, and the pinpointing scheme that precisely locates the singular equilibrium points were sufficient for the computational stability analysis. For the bifurcation points, however, a specific procedure for path-switching was also necessary to detect the branching paths to be traced in the post-buckling region. After the introduction, a general theory of elastic stability based on the energy concept was given. Then path tracing, an indirect method of detecting multiple bifurcation points, and path switching strategies were described. Next, some numerical examples of bifurcation analysis were carried out for a trussed stardome, and a pin-supported plane circular arch was described. Finally, concluding remarks were given.

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.

The aim of this study is to investigate the inelastic buckling behavior of the beams under moment gradient using a line-type finite element method. The method is incorporated the non-uniform yielding of the cross-section caused by the presence of residual stress and accepted model of residual stress so called 'simplified' and 'polynomial' pattern is adopted in this study. The inelastic lateral-torsional buckling results obtained in this study is compared with the buckling results obtained from the design method based on the allowable stress method given in Korean Steel Designers Manual (KSDM 1995). This study have found that the design method in KSDM (1995) is conservative without and with intermediate bracing applied at the mid span of the beam, and there is some scope for improving the provisions of KSDM (1995)

The flexural behavior of HSB I-girder with a non-slender web attributed to inelastic lateral-torsional buckling under uniform bending was investigated using nonlinear finite element analysis of ABAQUS. The girder was assumed to have a compact or noncompact web in order to prevent premature bend-buckling of the web. The unbraced length of the girder was selected so that inelastic lateral-torsional buckling governs the ultimate flexural strength. The compression flange was also assumed to be either compact or noncompact to prevent local buckling of the elastic flange. Both homogeneous sections fabricated from HSB600 or HSB800 steel and hybrid sections with HSB800 flanges and SM570-TMC web were considered. In the FE analysis, the flanges and web of I-girder were modeled as thin shell elements. Initial imperfections and residual stresses were imposed on the FE model. An elasto-plastic strain hardening material was assumed for steel. After establishing the validity of the present FE analysis by comparing FE results with test results in existing literature, the effects of initial imperfection and residual stress on the inelastic lateral-torsional buckling behavior were analyzed. Finite element analysis results for 96 sections demonstrated that the current inelastic strength equations for the compression flange in AASHTO LTFD can be applied to predict the inelastic lateral torsional buckling strength of homogeneous and hybrid HSB I-girders with a non-slender web.

Parabolic arch ribs are widely used in practical. In case of circular arch ribs. Inelastic in-plane buckling behaviors were investigated by Trahair(1996). Recently Yong-lin Pi & Bradford(2004) investigated about in-plane design equation for circular arch ribs. In $1970{\sim}1980$. In-plane buckling strength about parabolic arch ribs were studied by some japan researchers (Sinke, Kuranishi). Study results of Sinke & kuranishi are only valid for rise-span ratio $0.1{\sim}0.2$. In this paper. The researchers investigated about in-plane inelastic buckling behaviors of parabolic arch ribs having rise-span ratio from 0.1 to 0.4. From the results. When the rise-span ratio increase, flexural moments increase and influence of axial force to in-plane buckling strength decrease. Finally, buckling curves for parabolic arch ribs subjected distributed loading along the axis were suggested.
