During manufacturing the welded joint of steel structures, residual stress is produced and weld metal is used inevitably. And residual stress and weld metal influence on the static and dynamic mechanical behavior of steel structures. Therefore, to predict the mechanical behavior of steel pile with a welded joint during static and dynamic deformation, the research on the influence of the welded joints on the static and dynamic behavior of steel pile is clarified. In this paper, the residual stress distribution in a welded joint of steel piles was investigated by using three-dimensional welding analysis. The static and dynamic mechanical behavior of steel piles with a welded joint is investigated by three-dimensional elastic-plastic finite element analysis using a proposed dynamic hysteresis model. Numerical analyses of the steel pile with a welded joint were compared to that without a welded joint with respect to load carrying capacity and residual stress distribution. The influence of the welded joint on the mechanical behavior of steel piles during static and dynamic deformation was clarified by comparing analytical results

Welding at high humidity is frequently needed for the harbor hoisting machinery of steel structures in the coastal port city. A computational procedure is proposed for analyzing residual stress and temperature distributions induced by the T-joint welding in two types of St52-3 high strength low alloy steel plates both 6 mm in thickness. The relative humidity conditions varied from 75 to 90% at constant pressure. The finite element models are employed to evaluate the transient temperature and the residual stress during welding. According to the analysis results, the higher residual stress and the highest concentration of hydrogen are distributed in and surround the heat affected zone (HAZ), and vary with different humidity.

RESUMO: Na análise estrutural de edifícios é necessária e exigida em códigos de projeto a consideração do comportamento não-linear do material e da estrutura para determinação de esforços e deslocamentos. O desenvolvimento de novos softwares permite a realização de análises mais rigorosas, como a análise avançada, em que é possível avaliar a capacidade resistente e a estabilidade da estrutura dispensando a verificação dos elementos isolados e ainda considerando os efeitos não-lineares, sejam eles físicos e/ou geométricos. Por outro lado, os códigos normativos ainda permitem procedimentos simplificados para a análise estrutural, embora seja relativamente comum o uso de métodos mais avançados de análise, como por exemplo, o Método dos Elementos Finitos. Pretende-se, com este estudo, fornecer subsídios para a compreensão dos códigos normativos e a importância da escolha do modelo de análise estrutural na fase de projeto. Neste contexto, a fim de exemplificar, os efeitos das não-linearidades geométrica e física sobre o comportamento da estrutura foram avaliados pórticos planos em aço por meio de modelagem avançada. Além disso, uma modelagem com elementos finitos de barra / mola foi desenvolvida e os resultados obtidos se mostraram compatíveis com aqueles dos modelos tridimensionais onde os perfis foram modelados com elementos de chapa. Desta forma contribui-se para ampliar o estado da arte sobre análise estrutural de forma integrada com o dimensionamento de estruturas metálicas. ABSTRACT: In structural analysis of buildings it is necessary and required in design codes include non -linear effects on the material and structure for determining forces and displacements. The development of new software allows more rigorous analyzes, such as the advanced analysis; it is possible to assess the strength and stability of a structure excusing the verification of separate structural elements and considering the nonlinear effects. The design codes allow structural analysis by simplified procedures. However, it has been used advanced analysis methods such as the Finite Element Method. The aim of this study provide support for the normative codes and the importance of choosing the structural analysis model in the design phase. In order to illustrate the effects of geometry and physical nonlinearities on the behavior of the structure was evaluated plane frames steel through advanced modeling. In addition, a finite element modeling bar / spring was developed and the results obtained were consistent with those of three-dimensional shell models. In this way it contributes to extend the state of the art structural analysis integrated with the design of steel structures.

Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) Canisters are large welded stainless steel structures without post-weld heat treatment, possibly leaving large welding residual stresses (WRS). For CISCC assessments for SNF canisters, the estimation of the weld residual stress accurately is very important because tensile stress can make crack initiate. In this paper, the welding procedure for the SNF canisters is simulated through a FE analysis. Two-dimensional FE WRS analysis is performed for both longitudinal welding and circumferential welding. To simulate the welding procedure, heat analysis and stress analysis are conducted separately. The results are compared with the experimental mock-up canister WRS data conducted at the Sandia National Laboratories. It seems that FEA could sufficiently confirm the experimental data.

Because of the particularity of distribution of the residual stress of cold-formed thin-wall steel members, now there has not yet been a proper method for directly considering the influence of the residual stress in calculating the reliable capacity of carrying load of cold-formed thin-wall steel members, and such is the typical case in China’s National Technical Specification of Cold-formed Thin-wall Steel Structures GB50018-2002. With the cold-formed thin-wall channel steel taken as specific object in this study as well as assumed to be ideal elastic-plastic body, their finite modular models are set up in ANSYS. According to the tested results and the distributing rules of residual stress, the models of the residual stress of cold-formed thin-wall channel steel are established close to the factual data, and also the initial stress file is set up that can describe the magnitude and distribution of the residual stress. The file has two features: first, it is likely to find out about the rules of the cold-steel residual stress varying in the direction of thickness by using the values of residual stress at some integral points in thickness direction of a specified module , and second, it is applicabled to simulate various distributions of residual stress. So the ultimate load of the member can be worked out and elastic-plastic calculating problem of cold-formed thin-walled steel sections can be easily solved by introducing the initial stress file into the stability analysis of ANSYS.

Residual stress measurement carries an important significance in ensuring safety and reliability of steel structures. In order to simplify the measurement procedure and enhance flexibility of the conventional hole drilling method to adopt in in-situ residual stress measurement, digital image correlation (DIC) is applied to measure the displacement field caused by the localized stress relief associated due to hole drilling. It is referred to as DIC-hole drilling method. The residual stress theoretical expressions of the DIC-hole drilling method are discussed. The requirements of drilling device, camera and lens are determined by accounting for the accuracy of the in-situ residual stress measurement. A benchmark experiment by using steel beam specimens is developed to verify the feasibility and reliability of DIC-hole drilling method. Test data are compared with theoretical calculations and FEM results. The comparison indicates the DIC-hole drilling method has enough accuracy for the in-situ residual stress measurement. The displacement field in the regions centred at 2 to 2.5 times drilling hole radius far from the hole is proposed for the accurate residual stress measurement.

It is obvious that contemporary design and construction of unique buildings and structures is unthinkable without mathematical (numerical) and computer modelling and advanced analysis ofload-bearing structures under various kinds ofloads and impacts. One of the most ambitious and important construction projects is the uniquelarge-span structures. These are, in particular, stadiums, sports palaces and water parks, shopping malls, pedestrian, road and railway bridges of various design solutions. The distinctive paper is devoted to theoretical foundations and results of mathematical (numerical) modeling of the state (in terms of the analysis of stress-strain state, strength and stability) of football stadiums built for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia. Finite element method is used for approximation and high-precision numerical solution of corresponding boundary problems of structural mechanics. It is the most universal and powerful numerical method of mechanics. The paper, in particular, describes some features of development of finite element models and the main results of the analysis of the mechanical (structural) safety of three- dimensionallarge-span systems "soil foundation - reinforced concrete structures of foundations and stands - steel structures of the coating and facades" of these football stadiums with the basic and specialload combinations. In addition, the key procedures of scientific support during the corresponding expertise and assessments are outlined. Generally, socially significant and knowledge-intensive problem of providing mechanical (constructive) safety of unique combined objects of construction (three-dimensional systems "foundation - reinforced concrete structures of foundations and stands - steel structures of coating and facades") has been solved at a new level as a result of the performed complex of research works.
