Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, important aspects of nonlinear behavior of tubular joints are numerically investigated with a finite element procedure including geometric and material nonlinearities. The numerical results give a clear and convincing physical interpretation of the effects of external loads on the ultimate static strength of tubular joints. The results include the stress redistribution within the joint at the ultimate state, the stiffness of the T-type joints at different load levels, the real failure modes of tubular joints under external loads and the assessment of the safety margins in the design process. The loading types applied to the joints include axial compression from the brace, axial tension, in-plane bending, combined loads of axial compression and in-plane bending. Based upon the numerical tests of a typical joints under six different combinations of in-plane bending and axial compression, the interaction equations in different design codes are verified. The safely margins hidden in these interaction equations are evaluated in two different ways. The first evaluation is based upon the "theoretical accurate" ultimate capacity of simple load $Psb{u}$ or $Msb{u}$. The second evaluation is based upon the predicted $bar Psb{u}$ or $bar Msb{u}$ values calculated with the current API design recommendation. It is the writer's hope that the research work in this study would help to bring about a comprehensive design criterion, which brings together available knowledge of theoretical results, physical understanding and laboratory research in a form suitable for practical design use.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although tubular structures are reasonably well understood by designers of offshore platforms, onshore applications often suffer from "learning curve" problems, particularly in the connections, tending to inhibit the wider use of tubes. This book was written primarily to help this situation. Representing 25 years of work by one of the pioneers in the field of tubular structures, the book covers research, synthesis of design criteria, and successful application to the practical design, construction, inspection, and lifetime monitoring of major structures. Written by the principal author of the AWS D1.1 Code Provisions for Tubular Structures this book is intended to be used in conjunction with the AWS Structural Welding Code - Steel, AWS D1.1-88 published by the American Welding Society, Miami, FL, USA. Users of this Code, writers of other codes, students and researchers alike will find it an indispensable source of background material in their work with tubular structures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report describes the analytical investigation of stressdistribution in tubular T-joint for axial and in-plane bendingload cases. The results of the study on distribution of surfacestresses along the brace-chord intersection, including through-thickness variation and hot spot stress concentration factors arepresented and compared with those reported in the literature.The effect of shallow weld toe cracks (both hair-line crack andcrack depth equal to half the chord wall thickness) on stressredistribution are discussed.

Book excerpt: This topical book contains the latest scientific and engineering developments in the field of tubular steel structures, as presented at the "11th International Symposium and IIW International Conference on Tubular Structures". The International Symposium on Tubular Structures (ISTS) has a long-standing reputation for being the principal showcase for manufactured tubing and the prime international forum for discussion of research, developments and applications in this field. Various key and emerging subjects in the field of hollow structural sections are covered, such as: novel applications and case studies, static and fatigue behaviour of connections/joints, concrete-filled and composite tubular members, earthquake resistance, specification and code developments, material properties and structural reliability, impact resistance and brittle fracture, fire resistance, casting and fabrication innovations. Research and development issues presented in this book are applicable to buildings, bridges, offshore structures, entertainment rides, cranes, towers and various mechanical and agricultural equipment. This book is thus a pertinent reference source for architects, civil and mechanical engineers, designers, steel fabricators and contractors, manufacturers of hollow sections or related construction products, trade associations involved with tubing, owners or developers of tubular structures, steel specification committees, academics and research students. The conference presentations herein include two keynote lectures (the International Institute of Welding Houdremont Lecture and the ISTS Kurobane Lecture), plus finalists in the CIDECT Student Papers Competition. The 11th International Symposium and IIW International Conference on Tubular Structures – ISTS11 – took place in Québec City, Canada from August 31 to September 2, 2006.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally, engineers have used laboratory testing to investigate the behavior of metal structures and systems. These numerical models must be carefully developed, calibrated and validated against the available physical test results. They are commonly complex and very expensive. From concept to assembly, Finite Element Analysis and Design of Metal Structures provides civil and structural engineers with the concepts and procedures needed to build accurate numerical models without using expensive laboratory testing methods. Professionals and researchers will find Finite Element Analysis and Design of Metal Structures a valuable guide to finite elements in terms of its applications. Presents design examples for metal tubular connections Simplified review for general steps of finite element analysis Commonly used linear and nonlinear analyses in finite element modeling Realistic examples of concepts and procedures for Finite Element Analysis and Design

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviews the research which has been carried out from the 1980s to 2000 into the effect of cracks on the static strength of tubular joints. The effects of cracks on both plastic collapse and fracture are considered for a range of different types of joint geometry. The main geometries considered are T, Y, DT and K tubular joints with cracks around the weld toe in the chord and plain brace members with circumferential cracks. The information available consists of experimental test data and the results of a series of finite element analysis investigation

This book was released on 2017-08-28 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides background and guidance on the use of the structural hot-spot stress approach to fatigue analysis. The book also offers Design S-N curves for use with the structural hot-spot stress for a range of weld details, and presents parametric formulas for calculating stress increases due to misalignment and structural discontinuities. Highlighting the extension to structures fabricated from plates and non-tubular sections. The structural hot-spot stress approach focuses on cases of potential fatigue cracking from the weld toe and it has been in use for many years in tubular joints. Following an explanation of the structural hot-spot stress, its definition and its relevance to fatigue, the book describes methods for its determination. It considers stress determination from both finite element analysis and strain gauge measurements, and emphasizes the use of finite element stress analysis, providing guidance on the choice of element type and size for use with either solid or shell elements. Lastly, it illustrates the use of the recommendations in four case studies involving the fatigue assessment of welded structures using the structural hot-spot stress
