The method developed here, using sets of admissible stress fields and a potential-energy theorem adapted to that hypothesis about the warping variation, allows us to evaluate those stresses in an appropriate way.Jean-MarieSeguraSDOSInternational Journal of Engineering Science...
Using multiple plies of relatively thin gauge material means that lower residual stresses are introduced when the bellows element is formed. Also, the thinner multiple plies are subjected to lower operating stresses when compared to a single heavy fabric. Bellows therefore have lower built-in and op...
p-y curves are developed from the bending stresses in the pile, where nodal stresses along the pile are used to obtain bending. The finite element method (FEM) is considered the most powerful tool in modeling soil-structure interaction. The FEM has several advantages over the other methods, ...

3.1.1 Calculation of lateral compressive stresses in square steel tubes Assuming that the restraining effect of the square steel tube on the core concrete is uniformly distributed along the pipe wall and multiplied by the effective restraining coefficient to take into account its in ...
The platform allows you to automatically carry out the calculation of statically determinate beams to form a detailed report. To automatically select the beam section of the strength criteria (check for normal and shear stresses, for the third theory of strength) for statically determinate and static...
used to model fracture in the foam when subjected to predominant tensile stresses. The material constants were determined for aluminium foam of different densities, and the foam model was validated against existing and new experimental data for foam specimens and structural components made of foam-fill...
Both the axial and bending stresses of suspenders under vehicle and wind loads were calculated. Wu et al. [28] performed the fatigue assessment of suspenders accounting for the stochastic wind and traffic loads using in-situ monitoring data. Liu et al. [19] also investigated axial stresses in...
Expansion and compression strains When expansion joints are subjected to stresses, they undergo expansion and compression strains. These can be axial, transverse or angular (Figure 7.3) and are explained below. Sign in to download full-size image Figure 7.3. (a) Axial compression; (b) axial elo...
