Two cases are associated with the neutral axis lying inside the cross-section and one for it lying outside the section, as shown in Fig. 3. The relations obtained for these cases are given below.

The steel supporting frame of automatic mechanical garages is called a parking structure. Presently, for these novel structures, the design codes are without giving detailed guidelines to predict the response of their impacted column. Thus, this paper presents a simplified analytical procedure to calculate the impact behaviour of the column. The proposed method is based on the co-rotational rigid body model and follows the energy-balance principle. Compared with the previous analytical method, it specially targets the parking-structure column and can be used to conveniently and quickly calculate the column transverse displacement with considering the effects of the surrounding structural members and axial loads on the column. The research covers the situation where the column is subjected to the impacts at a low velocity, critical velocity, and overcritical velocity. Primarily, an approach is developed to simplify the overall parking structures. On that basis, the calculation formula for the critical impact velocity, i.e. the velocity that results in the formation of plastic hinges in the column, is derived. To predict the behaviour of the column under the impact beyond the critical impact velocity, the simplified analytical procedure is provided and then its accuracy is examined by validated numerical models. Eventually, according to the procedure, some suggestions are given to improve the design of the column after parametric analyses. It is recommended that control the axial-load levels of the column, particularly the column with a small section area, as well as set stiffeners on the column within the height of 1000 – 1500 mm.

This paper studies the influence of varying the proportion and configuration of steel and glass fiber-reinforced-polymer (GFRP) rebars on the flexural behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) beams. The influence of adding steel fibers in concrete used for the hybrid reinforced beams is also studied. A total of sixteen under-reinforced concrete beams of 200 × 450 × 3000 mm were tested to failure under four-point flexure. The parameters investigated were first-crack load, initial stiffness, ultimate load, ductility, service load, and deflection at 50% and 100% of ultimate load. The increase in the area of steel rebars caused improvement in serviceability and enhancement in ductility. The incorporation of steel fibers in concrete improved the first crack-load and initial stiffness. The flexural capacity of hybrid reinforced beams was assessed based on the section analysis by incorporating strain hardening in steel rebars, which showed a reasonably good correlation with the experimental results.
... The energy approach was utilized by Chen et al. [23] to investigate the progressive collapse risk of steel buildings with moment resisting frames. It has been identified in some studies [24,25] that the flexure/axial force interaction in plastic hinges and critical zones in steel frames has considerable reserve capacity owing to the strain hardening of beam sections. Different progressive collapse events of a steel framed building were investigated by Bae et al. [26]. ...

In this research, the risk of progressive collapse of 2D and 3D single story one-third scale steel frame assemblies having shear beam-column connections was experimentally investigated under middle column loss event. The 2D assembly comprised two beams and three columns; whereas the 3D assembly was the same as the 2D assembly except with the addition of a transverse beam at the inner beam-column connection. A vertical quasi-static loading was placed on the middle column of the assembly in order to represent the event of progressive collapse. The two test frames together with another 2D steel frame assembly having simple joint, tested previously by other researchers, were employed to validate 3D finite element (FE) analysis created with the help of ABAQUS software. Thereafter, the calibrated models were utilized to study the progressive collapse risk for eight steel simple beam-column connections due to removal of the center column. Specimens were divided into two groups (4 specimens in each group), which were 2D and 3D steel frame assemblies. Behavior of different joints was numerically compared with respect to their failure modes and load versus displacement characteristics.
... They also introduced a damage index to assess the occurrence of progressive collapse in steel framed buildings. Some researchers [26,27] have shown that the interaction between the axial force and flexure in plastic hinges and other regions has large reserve strength due to the strain hardening behavior of beam section, which is normally ignored in elastic-plastic analysis. ...

The ultimate load and collapsing modes of steel frames under combined vertical and horizontal forces are investigated through finite element (FE) modelling and limit analysis. Consideration is given to a frequently overlooked problem which is the kinematics arising from the actual rotation of the plastic hinges under axial force and bending moment. This fact draws attention to the necessity of a careful assessment of the limit analysis approaches, a fact that might be seen as somewhat in line with the outcome from famous paradoxes, such as the one by Stüssi and Kollbrunner (1935), which can only be solved by making reference to both elastic and plastic deformations. As a result, it can be shown that in such a manner, it is possible to obtain a handy tool capable of competing with much more computationally expensive methodologies. The approach may be relevant to practising engineers dealing with code prescriptions and standardization committees. 概要 研究目的 通过有限元分析和极限分析, 研究了在纵向和横向载荷下钢框架的最大负荷和坍塌模式, 并考虑了塑性铰链在轴向力和弯曲力矩的作用下在实际旋转时的运动学。 研究方法 在垂直和水平方向载荷共存的情况下, 基于轴向力和弯曲力矩的交互作用, 研究延性框架的极限载荷和坍塌模式对产生于塑性铰链的真实运动学的敏感性。 通过两个基本的案例和通过成功地评估非线性有限元分析和直接实施的极限分析步骤, 并利用 MATHEMATICA®, 揭示了其敏感性。 重要结论 在标准规程的框架下, 即使在最简单的案例中, 极限分析的主要结果也会考虑在坍塌时的运动学, 这与设计和加固的目的都是相关的。 如果没有对所有的结构元件的轴向力和弯曲力矩的交互作用进行合理的计算, 塑性铰链的定位计算可能得出不正确的坍塌机理和误导性的安全系数。 就具体方面而言, 本文清楚地表明, 在设计新的结构或者为现有结构进行加固时, 即使是使用看起来已经非常完备的经典步骤, 也必须非常小心。 本文的模型可以为处理规程设计的执业工程师和标准化委员会提供参考。

This paper derives bending moment–axial force (M–P) interaction relations for mild steel I-section by considering elastic–plastic and strain hardening idealisations with linear and parabolic strain hardening characteristics. The interaction curves have thus been developed. The interaction relations can predict strains, which is not possible in a rigid, perfectly plastic idealisation. The relations are obtained for different practically possible cases related to different locations of neutral axis. Two I-sections—one from DIN (German), IPE200 normally used for beams and another from AISC, W8×31 normally used for columns were considered for studying the characteristics of interaction curves.

The effect of strain rate on dynamic external inversion loading of Functionally Graded Thickness (FGT) tubes are studied analytically and their results are compared with Finite Element (FE) results. Based on the deformation theory and using rigid-perfectly plastic (R-PP) material idealization, a theoretical solution for dynamic inversion crushing load is derived by dividing the contact region of circular sections into three different sections. Comparing analytical and FE results indicates that prediction of crashworthiness loading for different thickness distribution of FGT tubes are satisfactory. Also, it is found that the concave distribution of thickness for FGT tubes improves the energy absorption more efficient than other geometries.

This research develops a simplified analytical method to predict the critical velocity for vehicle impact on steel columns under axial compressive load. The method is based on the energy balance principle with a quasi-static approximation of the column behaviour. The energy terms for the column include energy absorption through both elastic and plastic deformations and the work done by the axial compression load through shortening of the column. The vehicle response under impact is represented by a linear spring until the frontal structure of the vehicle has deformed to the engine box and rigid thereafter. This paper will present a comprehensive set of numerical simulation results, using ABAQUS/Explicit, to check validation of the simplified analytical method for the various energy terms and the final result of column critical velocity.
