This paper presents a finite element model which can simulate the axial compression behavior of steel reinforced recycled concrete (SRRC) filled square steel tube columns using the ABAQUS software. The analytical model was established by selecting the reasonable nonlinear analysis theory and the constitutive relationship of material in the columns. The nonlinear analysis of failure modes, deformation characteristics, stress nephogram, and load-strain curves of columns under axial loads was performed in detail. Meanwhile, the influences of recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) replacement percentage, profile steel ratio, width thickness ratio of square steel tube, RAC strength and slenderness ratio on the axial compression behavior of columns were also analyzed carefully. It shows that the results of finite element analysis are in good agreement with the experimental results, which verifies the validity of the analytical model. The axial bearing capacity of columns decreased with the increase of RCA replacement percentage. While the increase of wall thickness of square steel tube, profile steel ratio and RAC strength were all beneficial to improve the bearing capacity of columns. Additionally, the parameter analysis of finite element analysis on the columns was also carried out by using the above numerical model. In general, the SRRC filled square steel tube columns have high bearing capacity and good deformation ability. On the basis of the above analysis, a modified formula based on the American ANSI/AISC 360-10 was proposed to calculate the nominal axial bearing capacity of the columns under axial loads. The research conclusions can provide some references for the engineering application of this kind of columns.

This article presents a new analytical model to study the effect of porosity on the shear correction factors (SCFs) of functionally graded porous beams (FGPB). For this analysis, uneven and logarithmic-uneven porosity functions are adopted to be distributed through the thickness of the FGP beams. Critical to the application of this theory is a determination of the correction factor, which appears as a coefficient in the expression for the transverse shear stress resultant; to compensate for the assumption that the shear strain is uniform through the depth of the cross-section. Using the energy equivalence principle, a general expression is derived from the static SCFs in FGPB. The resulting expression is consistent with the variationally derived results of Reissner's analysis when the latter are reduced from the two-dimensional case (plate) to the one-dimensional one (beam). A convenient algebraic form of the solution is presented and new study cases are given to illustrate the applicability of the present formulation. Numerical results are presented to illustrate the effect of the porosity distribution on the (SCFs) for various FGPBs. Further, the law of changing the mechanical properties of FG beams without porosity and the SCFare numerically validated by comparison with some available results.

Cost-effective high precision hybrid elements are presented in a hierarchical form for dynamic analysis of plates. The costs associated with controlling the vibrations of ferromagnetic plates can be minimized by adequate determination of the amount of electric current and magnetic field. In the present study, the effect of magnetic field and electric current on nonlinear vibrations of ferromagnetic plates is investigated. The general form of Lorentz forces and Maxwell's equations have been considered for the first time to present new relationships for electromagnetic interaction forces with ferromagnetic plates. In order to derive the governing nonlinear differential equations, the theory of third-order shear deformations of three-dimensional plates has been applied along with the von Kármán large deformation strain-displacement relations. Afterward, the nonlinear equations are discretized using the Galerkin method, and the effect of various parameters is investigated. According to the results, electric current and magnetic field have different effects on the equivalent stiffness of ferromagnetic plates. As the electric current increases and the magnetic field decreases, the equivalent stiffness of the plate decreases. This is a phenomenon reported here for the first time. Furthermore, the magnetic field has a more significant effect on the steady-state deflection of the plate compared to the electric current. Increasing the magnetic field and electric current by 10-times results in a reduction of about 350% and an increase of 3.8% in the maximum steady-state deflection, respectively. Furthermore, the nonlinear frequency decreases as time passes, and these changes become more intense as the magnetic field increases.

축력과 면내 및 면외의 두방향 휨모멘트를 받는 철근콘크리트 벽체에 대한 비선형 해석연구를 수행하였으며 , 해석결과를 분석하여 벽체의 강도산정법을 유도하였다. 비선형 해석연구를 위하여 철근콘크리트 벽체에 대한 재료 및 기하학적 비선형 해석을 수행할 수 있는 유한요소 해석방법을 개발하였다. 철근콘크리트의 재료모델로서 소성이론과 파괴모델의 통합모델을 사용하였다. 철근콘크리트 벽체에 대한 해석결과를 토대로 단면의 응력분포를 이상화하였으며, 이를 이용하여 새로운 강도산정법을 개발하였다. 이 방법에 따르면, 면외 휨모멘트에 의하여 단위길이의 벽체가 지지할 수 있는 축력이 결정되며, 이 허용 단위 축력에 따라서 총 축력과 면내 휨모멘트의 상호관계곡선이 결정된다. 면외 휨모멘트가 증가할수록 축력과 면내 휨모멘트의 상호관계곡선이 축소되며 이는 벽체 강도의 감소를 가리킨다. 이 새로운 방법을 , 휨변형후에도 단면이 평면으로 유지된다는 가정을 사용하는 기존의 강도산정법과 비교한다. 이 비교결과에 따르면 , 새로운 방법에 비하여 기존의 방법은 면외 휨모멘크가 작은 영역에서 벽체의 강도를 과소평가하며, 면외 휨모멘트가 큰 영역에서는 벽체의 강도를 과대평가한다.
