Local buckling can be ignored for hot-rolled ordinary strength steel equal angle compression members, because the width-to-thickness ratios of the leg don't exceed the limit value. With the development of steel structures, Q420 high strength steel angles with the nominal yield strength of 420 MPa have begun to be widely used in China. Because of the high strength, the limit value of the width-to-thickness ratio becomes smaller than that of ordinary steel strength, which causes that the width-to-thickness ratios of some hot-rolled steel angle sections exceed the limit value. Consequently, local buckling must be considered for 420 MPa steel equal angles under axial compression. The existing research on the local buckling of high strength steel members under axial compression is briefly summarized, and it shows that there is lack of study on the local buckling of high strength steel equal angles under axial compression. Aiming at the local buckling of high strength steel angles, this paper conducts an axial compression experiment of 420MPa high strength steel equal angles, including 15 stub columns. The test results are compared with the corresponding design methods in ANSI/AISC 360-05 and Eurocode 3. Then a finite element model is developed to analyze the local buckling behavior of high strength steel equal angles under axial compression, and validated by the test results. Following the validation, a finite element parametric study is conducted to study the influences of a range of parameters, and the analysis results are compared with the design strengths by ANSI/AISC 360-05 and Eurocode 3.

The design of tall buildings has recently provided many challenges to structural engineers. One such challenge is to minimise the cross-sectional dimensions of columns to ensure greater floor space in a building is attainable. This has both an economic and aesthetics benefit in buildings, which require structural engineering solutions. The use of high strength steel in tall buildings has the ability to achieve these benefits as the material provides a higher strength to cross-section ratio. However as the strength of the steel is increased the buckling characteristics become more dominant with slenderness limits for both local and global buckling becoming more significant. To arrest the problems associated with buckling of high strength steel, concrete filling and encasement can be utilised as it has the affect of changing the buckling mode, which increases the strength and stiffness of the member. This paper describes an experimental program undertaken for both encased and concrete filled composite columns, which were designed to be stocky in nature and thus fail by strength alone. The columns were designed to consider the strength in axial compression and were fabricated from high strength steel plate. In addition to the encased and concrete filled columns, unencased columns and hollow columns were also fabricated and tested to act as calibration specimens. A model for the axial strength was suggested and this is shown to compare well with the test results. Finally aspects of further research are addressed in this paper which include considering the effects of slender columns which may fail by global instabilities.

Finite element buckling analysis of insulated transition flue ducts is carried out to determine the critical buckling load multipliers when subjected to axial compression for design process. Through this investigation, the results of numerical computations to examine the buckling strength for different possible duct shapes (cylinder, and circular-to-square) are presented. The load multipliers are determined through detailed buckling analysis taking into account the effects of geometrical construction and duct plate thickness which have great influence on the buckling load. Enhancement in the buckling capacity of such ducts by the addition of horizontal and vertical stiffeners is also investigated. Several models with varying dimensions and plate thicknesses are examined to obtain the linear buckling capacities against duct dimensions. The percentage improvement in the buckling capacity due to the addition of vertical stiffeners and horizontal Stiffeners is shown to be as high as three times for some cases. The study suggests that the best location of the horizontal stiffener is at 0.25 of duct depth from the bottom to achieve the maximum buckling capacity. A design equation estimating the buckling strength of geometrically perfect cylindrical-to-square shell is developed by using regression analysis accurately with approximately 4% errors.

곡률을 갖고 있는 쉘 부재들은 선박 및 육상구조 내에서 캠버와 선수, 선미, 파이프 및 저장용 탱크에 주로 사용되고 있다. 이러한 곡률 쉘 부재들은 기본적으로 원통형 실린더 부재의 일부라고 간주할 수 있다. 일반적으로 곡률의 존재는 압축하중 작용 시 좌굴강도 및 최종강도를 증가시키는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 영향을 확인하기 위하여 탄성대변형 시리즈해석을 수행하였으며, 매개변수의 영향을 분석하였다. 실린더의 최종강도 거동은 초기처짐과 해석모델링 방법에 큰 영향을 받는 것을 확인하였다.

This study involves a series of experiments on the buckling strength of eccentrically compressed cold-formed stainless steel square hollow-section columns. The principal parameters in this study are slenderness ratios ($L_k/r$ = 30, 50, 70) and magnitude of eccentricity e (0, 25, 50, 75, 100 mm) on the symmetrical end-moment. The objectives of this paper are to obtain the buckling loads by conducting a series of experiments and to compare the behavior of the eccentrically compressed cold-formed stainless steel square hollow-section columns with the results of the analysis. The ultimate buckling strength of the square-section members were determined with the use of a numerical method in accordance with the bending moment-axial force (M-P) interaction curves. The behavior of each specimen was displayed in the form of a moment-radian (M-${\theta}$) relationship. The numerically obtained ultimate-buckling interaction curves of the beam columns coincided with the results of the experiments.

This paper presents a study of buckling of the multi-vaulted cylindrical shell ("Aster"), under an axial compression alone or combined with an external pressure. This shell which was presented in a recent paper is a self-stiffened structure having a satisfactory behaviour and a higher buckling strength under external pressure than a circular cylindrical shell with the same dimensions. The results of this study emphasize the interest of the behaviour of the "Aster" shell under two other types of loading, revealing an acceptable level of strength which is favorable for an expansion of its use in other areas.

Research on concrete-filled steel columns has been conducted. It is also well known that the load and deformation capacity of concrete-filled steel columns are considerable larger than those of widely used reinforced concrete columns and steel encased concrete columns because the concrete core in the steel is confined laterally by the steel. But, most of these works focused on columns with strength enhancement by the confinement effect, so that no local buckling prevented by the concrete. columns because the concrete core in the steel is confined laterally by the steel. But, most of these works focused on columns with strength enhancement by the confinement effect, so that no local buckling prevented by the concrete. This paper, therefore, presents on the stress-strain relation of a concrete filled rectangular steel tube under axial compression. As the results, the axial load verse average axial strain relationship of concrete-filled rectangular steel columns were very stable. The small B/t ratios in concrete-filled rectangular steel columns aren't affected prevention of local buckling but strength enhancement by confinement effect.

In this paper, improved out-of-plane design of parabolic arches was proposed based on the current design code. The arches resist general loading by a combination of axial compression and bending actions, and the interaction formula between two extreme cases of axial and bending actions is generally used for the design. Firstly, the out-of-plane buckling strength of arches in a pure axial compression and a pure bending were studied. Then, out-of-plane design of parabolic aches under general transverse loading was investigated. From the results, it can be found that the proposed design equations provided good prediction of out-of-plane strength for parabolic arches which satisfy the thresholds for deep arches, while proposed design equations overestimated the buckling load of shallow arches.
