The Finite Element Method (FEM) is a feasible tool to perform progressive collapse analyses of large structural systems. Despite enormous developments in finite element formulations and computer technologies the results of structural analyses should be validated against experimental results. In this paper the collapse behaviour of two identical box girder specimens is determined experimentally for the load case of pure longitudinal bending. The specimens are composed of stiffened plate panels and connected at either ends to a loading structure. Within a 4-point bending test a constant bending moment is applied to each specimen to determine the collapse behaviour even in the post-ultimate strength range. The results of the experimental determination of the ultimate strength are presented for the box girder specimens. To simulate the collapse behaviour a finite element model is used and validated against experimental results.

It is known that the hull girder ultimate strength with consideration of lateral loads such as bottom sea pressures and/or cargo loads generally decreases than that without consideration of the lateral loads (i.e. the effect of lateral loads). In this study a series of elasto-plastic analyses of three cargo holds models, which can reproduce the collapse behavior of the hold structures subjected to both vertical bending moment and lateral loads such as bottom sea pressures, container cargo loads etc., were carried out on a number of container ships with various sizes, and the hull girder ultimate strength obtained through the analyses were comparatively examined focusing on the effect of the lateral loads. As results of the examination, it has been concluded that local strength of the double bottom structure against the lateral loads is closely related to the hull girder ultimate strength in the case of container ships, the effect of the lateral loads on the hull girder ultimate strength varies among container ships due to the difference of construction of the double bottom structure and it is important to assess the hull girder ultimate strength explicitly taking into consideration the effect of the lateral loads for large container ships such as Post-Panamax sizes.

On the life, the ship will constantly get the structural load caused by the external load of the internal waves and loads of the ship's load and the structure itself which then reaches the ultimate strength of the structure. This study aims to determine the strength of the boundary of the hull due to the vertical bending moment so that the ship structure can be guaranteed security. The analysis was done by using finite element method (FEM) by modeling the structure of the tanker section modified based on the shape of the girder box so that a simpler model is obtained. This calculation is done by using ANSYS 17 software. The calculation of vessel structure is simulated based on two existing models namely girder box model and modified tanker model. In the girder box model, ultimate strength is obtained at 6,311 x 108 Nmm for hogging conditions and -6.311 x 108 Nmm for sagging conditions. While on the tanker model, the ultimate strength obtained is -8.99 x 1012 Nmm for sagging conditions and 1.0277 x 1013 Nmm for hogging conditions.

  Abstrak Perkembangan peraturan konstruksi tidak lagi mengatur jarak gading. Sehingga para perancang kapal merencanakan jarak gading yang optimal dengan batasan resiko tekuk pada pelat menurut peraturan klasifikasi, momen batas struktur kapal harus sama dengan atau lebih besar dari 1.2 kali momen lentur vertikal (sagging dan hogging). Momen lentur vertikal dihitung dengan menggunakan formulasi yang telah diberikan oleh BKI. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kekuatan batas pada struktur kapal ferry Ro-Ro yang membandingkan hasil dari dua metode yaitu Metode Smith dan NLFEA. Ro-Ro adalah kapal yang menangani muatannya dengan cara rolling it on and off di atas single or series ramps. Ramps yang dapat bekerja baik saat di kapal dan dermaga. Pada penelitian ini menunjukkan perbandingan nilai hasil dari metode NLFEA lebih besar daripada metode Smith. Hal ini dikarenakan metode NLFEA dapat menghitung redistribusi beban dan interaksi antara kegagalan lokal dan global secara kompleks sehingga keakuratan hasil perhitungan metode NLFEA lebih baik daripada metode Smith. Semakin jauh jarak gading maka semakin kecil beban batas agar pelat mengalami tekuk.   Kata Kunci: Kapal Ro-Ro,  Penampang Melintang, Jarak Gading, Tekuk, Kekuatan Batas   Abstract The development of construction's regulation is no longer determining the distance of the frame. Hence, the designers make the optimal frame distance plan with the ultimate risk of bending on the plate. According to the classification rules, the structure's ultimate moment must be equal to or greater than 1.2 times vertical bending moment (sagging and hogging). This study aims to determine the ultimate strength on the structure of a Ro-Ro ferry which comparing two methods between the Smith and NLFEA Methods. Ro-Ro is a ship that handles its cargo by rolling it on and off over a single or ramp series. Ramps that can work well on board and dock. The use of ANSYS application that applied NLFEA method in this study shows the comparison of result value of NLFEA method is greater than Smith method. This is because the NLFEA method can calculate load redistribution and the interaction between local and global failures in a complex way so that the accuracy of the NLFEA method is better than the Smith method. The further the ivory distance the smaller the load limit for the plate to buckling.

<p>Curved box girder bridges are widely used in viaducts in urban areas, as well as highway junctions. In fabricating curved box girders, automatic welding robots cannot be applied to welding of horizontal stiffeners to the web panel due to the girder curvature and manufacturing costs increase. <span>Elimination or reduction of the number of horizontal stiffeners is desirable. In this study, </span>FE analysis was carried out varying the curvature and the width-thickness ratio of the structural components as structural parameters to propose the curved box girder bridges without horizontal stiffeners in the web panel. In order to evaluate <span>the ultimate strength, the collapse mode (buckling of lower flange, web panel or stiffeners) has been clarified considering the </span>design sectional forces such as torsional moment, bending moment and shearing force.</p><p>From the results, it was found that the curvature has little influence on the bending buckling strength of the web panels. Even if the horizontal stiffeners are eliminated, the ultimate strength doesn’t decrease until compressive flange buckling occurs. It is concluded that the ultimate strength is governed by the buckling of the compressive flange, even when the bending buckling occurs in the web panel.</p>

In this paper, post-ultimate strength behavior of VLFS to extreme wave-induced loads is investigated. A mathematical model to describe the post-ultimate strength behavior of VLFS is developed taking the hydroelasticity into account. The whole VLFS is modeled by two beams on an elastic foundation connected via a nonliner rotational spring assuming that VLFS collapses amidship under severe bending moment. The model is solved numerically by using FEM. It is shown that the extent of collapse of VLFS is smaller than that of ship structures for given amplitude of vertical bending moment on condition that the structures have the same cross section and the same moment-displacement relationship. A simple formula to represent the extent of collapse of VLFS is derived. Its efficacy is shown.
