This article presents the behaviour and design of cold-formed steel (CFS) web-stiffened lipped channel beams that primarily fail owing to the buckling interaction of distortional and global buckling modes. The incorporation of an intermediate stiffener in the web of the lipped channel improved the buckling performance leads to distortional buckling at intermediate length beams. The prediction of the strength of members that fail in individual buckling modes can be easily determined using the current DSM equations. However, it is difficult to estimate the strength of members undergoing buckling interactions. Special attention is required to predict the strength of the members undergoing strong buckling interactions. In the present study, the geometric dimensions of the web stiffened lipped channel beam sections were chosen such that they have almost equal distortional and global buckling stresses to have strong interactions. A validated numerical model was used to perform a parametric study and obtain design strength data for CFS web-stiffened lipped channel beams. Based on the obtained numerical data, an assessment of the current DSM equations and the equations proposed in the literature (for lipped channel CFS sections) is performed. Suitable modifications were also proposed in this work, which resulted in a higher level of design accuracy to predict the flexural strength of CFS web stiffened lipped channel beams undergoing distortional and global mode interaction. Furthermore, reliability analysis was performed to confirm the reliability of the proposed modification.

Plastic deformation of link beams in eccentrically braced frames is the primary dissipating source of seismic energy. Despite the excellent compatibility with the architectural designs, previous researches indicate the deficiency of flexural yielding links compared to the shear yielding ones because of their localized plastic deformation. Previous investigations have shown that implementing web openings in beams could be an efficient method to improve the seismic performance of moment-resisting connections. Accordingly, this research investigates the use of flexural links with stiffened and un-stiffened web openings to eliminate localized plasticity at the ends of the link. For this purpose, the numerical models are generated in finite element software "Abaqus" and verified against experimental data gathered from other studies. Models are subjected to cyclic displacement history to evaluate their behavior. Failure of the numerical models under cyclic loading is simulated using a micromechanical based damage model known as Cyclic Void Growth Model (CVGM). The elastic stiffness and the strength-based and CVGM-based inelastic rotation capacity of the links are compared to evaluate the studied models' seismic response. The results of this investigation indicate that some of the flexural links with edge stiffened web openings show increased inelastic rotation capacity compared to an un-perforated link.

본 연구에서는 개단면 리브 보강판에 대하여 여러 가지 제원 변화에 따른 국부 처짐과 국부 모멘트를 정형화하고자 하였다. 평강 리브와 역T형 리브를 갖는 여러 가지 보강판을 분석한 결과, 하부 플랜지가 국부 거동에 미치는 영향이 매우 작아 국부 거동은 리브 간격, 복부 두께와 높이, 판 두께에 대한 비율 함수로 표현할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 평강 리브와 역T형 리브를 갖는 보강판의 비율 함수가 유사한 결과를 나타내어 하나의 비율 함수로 통합 가능하였으며, 이를 적용한 결과 타당한 결과를 나타내었다. 다른 형태의 보강판에 비율 함수를 적용한 결과, 오차율 증가가 크지 않아 본 연구의 적용성을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제안한 국부 거동에 대한 비율 함수식을 이용하면, 개단면 리브를 갖는 보강판의 국부 처짐과 국부 모멘트에 대하여 제원과 상관없이 간편하게 타당한 결과를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

For vibration analysis of stiffened plates the orthotropic plate analogy is commonly accepted. As to stiffened plates in contact with water, however, there is still much uncertainty in estimation of the added mass because of the lack of direct methods. The authors, considering that for added mass of plates there are many reliable data derived theoretically or experimentally available, suggest a method to estimate the added mass of a stiffened plate by combining the mass increase factor, $\beta$, of an equivalent orthotropic plate and the correction factor, $\kappa$, for the effects of stiffeners. The latter is to be derived from systematic experimental investigations. Then, the natural frequency in water, f', can be calculated from that in air, f, by the equation $f'=f/\sqrt{1+\kappa\beta}$. To investigate practical applicability of this method, a systematic experiment was carried out with five uniaxially stiffened plates. Each of them had a plate of same size, $600mm{\times}600mm{\times}3.2mm$, but stiffeners of different size in the web-depth, 41.6mm, 51.2mm or 66.8mm and of different spacing 75mm, 100mm, or 150mm. Natural frequencies were measured under simply supported-edge conditions in both air and water, and corresponding $\kappa$ values derived. In spite of wide variations of web-depth and spcae of stiffeners, the experimental results show that the diversity of $\kappa$ values is not remarkable; mean values of $\kappa$ are 1.31 with standard deviation of 0.025 for the first modes and 1.27 with that 0.077 for the second modes. Hence, the authors concluded that the above $\kappa$ values can be used generally for the cases of uniaxially stiffened plates both sides of which contact with water, and that $\kappa$ values of general use for the cases of cross-stiffened plates may also be obtainable from similar experiments.

More than one longitudinal web stiffener may be economical in the design of plate girders that have considerably high width-to-thickness ratio of webs. In this study, the bend-buckling strength of relatively deep webs with two horizontal lines of flat plate-shaped single-sided stiffeners was numerically investigated. Linear eigenvalue buckling analyses were conducted for specially selected hypothetical models of stiffened web panels, in which top and bottom junctions of a web with flanges were assumed to have simply supported boundary conditions. Major parameters in the analyses were the locations of two longitudinal stiffeners, stress ratios in the web, slenderness ratios and aspect ratios of web panels. Based on the application of assumptions on the combined locations of the two longitudinal web stiffeners, simplified equations were proposed for the bend-buckling coefficients and compared to the case of one longitudinal stiffener. It was found that bend-buckling coefficients can be doubled by adopting two longitudinal stiffeners instead of one longitudinal stiffener. For practical design purposes, additional equations were proposed for the required bending rigidity of the longitudinal stiffeners arranged in two horizontal lines on a web.

Pitting corrosion commonly shaped in hull structure due to marine corrosive environment seriously causes the deterioration of structural performance. This paper deals with the ultimate strength behaviors of stiffened ship panels damaged by the pits subjected to uniaxial compression. A series of no-linear finite element analyses are carried out for three stiffened panels using ABAQUS software. Influences of the investigated typical parameters of pit degree (DOP), depth, location and distribution on the ultimate strength strength are discussed in detail. It is found that the ultimate strength is significantly reduced with increasing the DOP and pit depth and severely affected by the distribution. In addition, the pits including their distributions on the web have a slight effect on the ultimate strength. Compared with regular distribution, random one on the panel result in a change of collapse mode. Finally, an empirical formula as a function of corrosion volume loss is proposed for predicting the ultimate strength of stiffened panel.

본 연구에서는 수평보강재가 설치된 세장한 복부판을 갖는 플레이트 거더의 휨강도 평가를 위한 해석적 연구를 수행하였다. SM490강재를 대상으로 해석에서 구해진 휨강도를 AASHTO LRFD 기준 및 Eurocode 3 기준과 비교한 결과, 특히 AASHTO LRFD 기준은 수평보강재로 보강된 복부판의 세장비가 감소함에 따라 휨강도를 크게 과소평가하는 것으로 나타났다. 그 원인은 현재 AASHTO LRFD 기준은 수평보강재 보강에 따른 복부판의 비조밀 및 조밀 한계세장비 증가를 고려하지 않은 점과 보강 복부판이 압축플랜지의 회전을 구속하는 효과가 증가하는 것을 적절히 고려하지 않기 때문으로 분석되었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 보강 시 복부판과 플랜지의 한계세장비를 제안하였으며, 이를 AASHTO LRFD 기준에 적용함으로써 휨강도를 비교적 합리적으로 평가할 수 있음을 제시하였다.

본 논문은 냉간성형 각형강관 T형 접합부의 최대내력에 관한 실험 연구이다. 새로운 접합부로 지관을 트러스 평면에 대해 $45{^{\circ}}$회전시켜서 주관에 용접하고 주관 웨브 측면에는 플레이트로 보강한 형상을 연구 대상으로 설정하였다. $16.7{\leq}2{\gamma}(B/T){\leq}33.3$이고 $0.63{\leq}{\beta}(b1/B){\leq}0.7$ 범위의 지관 $45{^{\circ}}$회전시킨 T형 접합부에 대하여, 기존 최대내력식과의 비교 검토를 통하여 웨브 측면 보강에 따른 내력증대 및 파괴모드의 변화 등에 대하여 실험을 통해 조사하고자 한다. 실험결과, 보강판 두께 증가에 따라 보강 실험체의 접합부 내력이 상승하는 것으로 나타났다. $2{\gamma}=33.3$이고 플레이트로 웨브 보강한 실험체는는 접합부 파괴모드가 플랜지 파괴(M2)에서 복합파괴(M3) 형태로 전환되었으며, $2{\gamma}=16.7$이고 플레이트로 웨브 보강한 실험체에서는 웨브파괴(M1)에서 플랜지파괴(M2)로 지배 파괴모드가 변화하는 것으로 나타났다.
