shows the variation of BETA factor (β = K FEA /K ECP = K FEA /4) versus flange slenderness (C f /t f ) and web slenderness (d w /t w ) for different values of panel aspect ratio (L/d). BETA (β) variation with panel parameters reflects the impact on the local buckling coefficient and, in turn, the buckling strength as per Eq. (6) and Eq. (1), respectively. The lower the BETA value, the lower the buckling coefficient relative to the reference value (K ECP =4). It is noted that based on pilot analyses the BETA factor was found to be constant for flanges of C f /t f up to 5.0 "extremely thick flanges" representing the clamp restraint case. Consequently, this range of C f /t f has been excluded from the analysis.

Mathematically, the buckling phenomenon can be defined as a bifurcation in the solution to the equations of static equilibrium that leads to failure. In practice, buckling is characterized by a sudden failure of a structural member under high compressive stresses; meanwhile, the actual stress at the point of failure is less than the ultimate compre...

... restraint for the web approaching the hinges restraint at the extreme. The thick flanges (low value of C f /t f ), however, afford high rotational restraint for the web approaching the clamps restraint at the extreme. Comparing the results in Figs. 2a-2d, it is clear that the panel aspect ratio (L/d) affects the buckling coefficient value. Fig. 2. Beta Factor versus C f /t f for different d w /t w values: a) L/d=1.67, b) L/d=2.5, c) L/d=3.5 and (d) L/d=4.0 Figure 2 shows that BETA attains its maximum at low value of flange C f /t f "thick flanges" for any value of web d w /t w , because of the clamps restraint to the ...

In this paper, the buckling analysis on simply supported rectangular plates and stiffened panels is carried out. Three different plate thicknesses were proposed (i.e., 3 mm, 4 mm, and 5 mm). The thickness of the longitudinal stringers and sub-stiffeners were also varied. The material that was used was marine grade steel. The load versus the displac...

Disturbance to stability of a member occurs with presence of any external force of different nature than that of the pre-applied load in action or through presence of any eccentric loading. These disturbances includes effects such as buckling in columns and plates which happens when action due to applied load is lesser than the moment due to distur...

A finite element modelling study on the progressive collapse of steel moment-resisting frames under column removal scenarios is presented. Different parameters, such as location of initial local failure, number of story, material strain-rate effects and column removal time (CRT) are considered. The model structures are analyzed using static and dyn...

Affected by a complex environment, corrosion is a common defect in steel pipelines. Moreover, steel pipelines are subjected to large axial forces during their installation and operation. Corroded deep-sea steel pipelines are prone to local buckling under complex loads. Therefore, in view of this problem, the collapse response of corroded steel pipe...
