Abstract
Spiral-welded steel tubes with diameter to wall thickness ratios between 60 and 140 are often employed in combined wall systems with local buckling as governing failure mode. The current design rules in Eurocode 3 (EN 1993-5 and EN 1993-1-6) are not capable to obtain a good estimate of the real strength and deformation capacity. In a European RFCS project called Combitube, the structural behaviour of spiral-welded steel tubes has been inves-Tigated. An analytical model has been developed that gives more economic designs with a bet-Ter balanced safety level. Copyright ©: SDSS'2016.

Shortening design time through multiplatform simulations with a portable OpenCL golden-model: The LDPC decoder case
Falcao, G.; Owaida, M.; Novo, D.; Purnaprajna, M.; Bellas, N.; Antonopoulos, C. D.; Karakonstantis, G.; Burg, A.; Ienne, P. (2012)Hardware designers and engineers typically need to explore a multi-parametric design space in order to find the best configuration for their designs using simulations that can take weeks to months to complete. For example, ... -
