Buckling behaviour of thin-walled cold formed steel platforms subjected to bending
(2008)The paper studies the behaviour of thin walled cold formed steel beams in bending, through nonlinear finite element analysis. These types of beams are usually used as platforms in scaffold configurations. The research aims ... -
The effect of spiral cold-bending manufacturing process on pipeline mechanical behavior
(2016)Large-diameter spiral-welded pipes are employed in demanding hydrocarbon pipeline applications, which require an efficient strain-based design framework. In the course of a large European project, numerical simulations on ... -
The effect of spiral cold-bending manufacturing process on pipeline mechanical behavior
(2019)Large-diameter steel pipes, fabricated through the spiral-welding manufacturing process, are extensively used in onshore pipelines for the transmission of energy (hydrocarbon) and water resources. However, their use in ... -
Fire resistance prediction of slim-floor asymmetric steel beams using single hidden layer ANN models that employ multiple activation functions
(2022)In this paper a mathematical model for the prediction of the fire resistance of slim-floor steel beams based on an Artificial Neural Network modeling procedure is presented. The artificial neural network models are trained ... -
Modelling of spiral-welded pipe manufacturing and its effect on pipeline structural performance
(2016)The increasing use of large-diameter spiral-welded pipes in demanding hydrocarbon pipeline applications constitutes an engineering challenge, which requires the definition of an appropriate strain-design framework. In the ... -
Rotational capacity of pre-damaged I-section steel beams at elevated temperatures
(2017)Structures submitted to Fire-After-Earthquake loading situations, are first experiencing inelastic deformations due to the seismic action and are then submitted to the thermal loading. This means that in the case of steel ... -
Uplift mechanics of unanchored liquid storage tanks subjected to lateral earthquake loading
(2021)Motivated by the seismic response of unanchored liquid storage tanks, their uplift mechanism under strong lateral loading is examined. Using three-dimensional finite element models, nonlinear static analysis is conducted ...
