The Stability of a Steel Welded Girder with Bending and Shear Forces Included


Zacytuj

The stability of the element of a steel welded girder subjected to bending and shear forces is considered. The considered element is a rectangular plate supported on boundary. The type of a plate boundary conditions depend on the types (thickness) of the stiffeners. Considered plate is loaded by in-plane forces causing bending and shear effects. The Finite Element Method was applied to carry out the analysis. Additionally the Boundary Element Method in terms of boundary-domain integral equation was applied to evaluate the critical shear loading.
