Energy Formulation

Circular thin-walled elastic tubes under concentric axial loading usually fail by shell buckling, and in practical design procedures the buckling load can be determined by modifying the local buckling stress to account empirically for the imperfection sensitive response that is typical in Donnell shell theory. While the local buckling stress of a hollow thin-walled tube under concentric axial compression has a solution in closed form, that of a thin-walled circular tube with an elastic infill, which restrains the local buckling mode, has received far less attention. This paper addresses the local buckling of a tubular member subjected to axial compression, and formulates an energy-based technique for determining the local buckling stress as a function of the stiffness of the elastic infill by recourse to a transcendental equation. This simple energy formulation, with one degree of buckling freedom, shows that the elastic local buckling stress increases from 1 to [Formula: see text] times that of a hollow tube as the stiffness of the elastic infill increases from zero to infinity; the latter case being typical of that of a concrete-filled steel tube. The energy formulation is then recast into a multi-degree of freedom matrix stiffness format, in which the function for the buckling mode is a Fourier representation satisfying, a priori, the necessary kinematic condition that the buckling deformation vanishes at the point where it enters the elastic medium. The solution is shown to converge rapidly, and demonstrates that the simple transcendental formulation provides a sufficiently accurate representation of the buckling problem.

Strength And Ductility

To improve the mechanical behavior of T-shaped concrete-filled steel tubular (T-CFT) column, the method that setting binding bars along the height of steel tube is proposed. Five T-CFT stub columns with binding bars and another two without binding bars subjected to axial compression were tested. The influences of the spacing and diameter of binding bars on the failure modes, maximum strength, and ductility of T-CFT stub columns are investigated. The experimental results demonstrate that by setting binding bars or decreasing the spacing of binding bars, the buckling modes of the steel plates are changed, the local buckling of the steel plates is postponed, and the confinement effects on the core concrete can be improved significantly. By setting binding bars, the bearing capacity and ductility of the columns are enhanced by 1.17 and 3.38 times at most, respectively. By increasing the diameter of binding bars, the ductility of the columns is improved, but the bearing capacity and buckling strength cannot be improved when the diameter is large enough.

Reactive powder concrete-filled steel tubes (RPCFSTs) have become an important research target in recent years. In engineering applications, RPCFSTs can provide superior vertical components for high-rise and tower buildings, thereby enabling developers to provide more floor space. However, this type of composite structure is prone to inelastic outward local buckling. The use of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) wrapping to suppress such local buckling has shown great potential in limited test results. This paper presents experimental results concerning the axial compression of CFRP-confined reactive powder concrete-filled circular steel tubes (CF-RPCFSTs). We included 18 specimens in our experimental investigation, varying the number of CFRP layers, steel tube thickness, and RPC strength. According to our test results, CF-RPCFSTs exhibit compression shear failure and drum-shaped failure. The CFRP wrap can effectively enhance bearing capacity and postpone local buckling of the steel tube. In addition, three-layer CFRP-confined RPC-filled thin-wall steel tubes are suitable for engineering. We also propose a model to calculate the bearing capacity of CF-RPCFSTs. Compared to the existing model of CFRP-confined concrete-filled steel tubes, the results obtained using the proposed model are in good agreement with our experimental results.

Shear Span

A comprehensive study of the shear characteristics of steel fiber reinforced recycled concrete-filled steel tube (SRCFST) columns is conducted. 50 CFST stub columns are tested with the variables of steel tube diameter-thickness ratio ( D/t), shear span-to-depth ratio (λ), axial compression ratio ( n), and concrete mix. Two types of cements, three recycled aggregate percentages, three water-cement ratios, and three steel fiber contents are considered in design of concrete mixes. The experimental results show that SRCFST columns present the coincident shear behavior of the ordinary CFST columns. As λ is increased, shear resistance shows a downtrend, while the flexural strength presents an increasing trend. Imposing axial compression or thickening steel tube contributes to an adequate safety margin in plastic period. Based on the contributions superposition method, a predicted model of the shear capacity of SRCFST columns is proposed in consideration of shear-span ratio, axial compression, and self-stress.

Steel Strength

High strength steel sections have been increasingly used in buildings and bridges, and steel angles have also been widely used in many steel structures, especially in transmission towers and long span trusses. However, high strength steel exhibits mechanical properties that are quite different from ordinary strength steel, and hence, the local buckling behavior of steel equal angle members under axial compression varies with the steel strength. However, there is a lack of research on the relationship of the local buckling behavior of steel equal angle members under axial compression with the steel strength. A finite element model is developed in this paper to analyze the local buckling behavior of steel equal angle members under axial compression, and study its relationship with the steel strength and the width-to-thickness ratio of the angle leg. The finite element analysis (FEA) results are compared with the corresponding design method in the American code AISC 360-05, which provides a reference for the related design.

In order to discuss the failure mechanism of concrete filled steel tube lattice wind generator tower joints. Based on the parameters of web member section form, and using nonlinear static numerical simulation, this dissertation research on the stressed complex joints. The results of the study show that the abdominal rod for circular steel tubes joint (JD1) is instability failure which is led to the local buckling of compressive bar; the abdominal rod for single angle steel (JD2) or double angle steel (JD3) joint is instability failure because of the local buckling of the joint board. Under the web members and joint boards all fitting their own capacity requirements, JD1 is very easy to make draw bar broken on both sides of the pillar tube wall region, JD2 and JD3 are apt to damage on the weak positions of joint board ends and pillar tube wall joint. In the three forms of web member joints, the best ultimate bearing capacity is JD1 , JD3 is the second and JD2 is minimum.
