Free-vibration characteristics of a thin-walled, open cross-section beam, with unconstrained damping layers at the flanges, are investigated. Both uncoupled transverse vibration and the coupled bending-torsion oscillations, of a beam of a top-hat section, are considered. Numerical results are presented for natural frequencies and modal loss factors of simply supported and clamped-clamped beams.

Introduction. Conducted is to the evaluation of the stress-strain state of the steel-concrete beams with thin-walled section. In recent times, steel-reinforced concrete structures have become widely used in civilian buildings (beams, slabs, columns). Thin-walled section have not found wide application in steel concrete structures, unlike steel structures. Presents the results of numerical studies of beams consisting of concrete, anchors and steel beams. Two investigating of the location of anchors are given. Numerical investigations are presented of steel-concrete beams with thin-walled section based on numerical studies. Testing procedure and test result are given. Results of calculations, comparison of numerical and experimental studies are presented. Materials and methods. For full-scale experiments, steel I-beams with filling of side cavities with concrete were adopted, screws are used as anchor ties, with varied both the lengths and their location (vertically and obliquely). As steel curved C-shaped steel profiles were used steel profiles from the range of the company “Steel Faces”. ANSYS software package was used for computer modeling. A total of 16 steel concrete beams were considered, for which the results of strength and stiffness evaluation were obtained in ANSYS. Results. The data of the stress-strain state of beams on the basis of computer simulation are obtained. The results are used for the production of field samples. Data of computer simulation are compared with the indicators of field experiments. Conclusions. The stress-strain state of steel-concrete structures was studied on the basis of numerical and experimental data. The proposed calculation method gives good convergence with the experimental data. Anchor connections made from self-tapping screws can be used in studies for modeling in steel-concrete beams structures and other anchor devices, ensuring the joint operation of concrete and steel profiles in structures.

Application of beam theory in flexural vibration analysis of thin-walled girders is extended for the high-frequency domain by introducing the concept of effective values of beam parameters, that is, cross-sectional moment of inertia, shear area, mass, and mass moment of inertia. Formulation of these parameters is based on equivalence of deformation energy and inertia work, respectively, for a considered structure and its beam model, resulting in the same values of their natural frequencies. For illustration, the natural vertical vibration of a simply supported pontoon has been considered, where it was possible to obtain the analytical solution due to sinusoidal mode shapes. The effective values of cross-sectional moment of inertia and shear area show significant variation in frequency domain. Transfer of effective values of beam parameters, determined for simply supported structure, in the case of other boundary conditions is suggested, based on equal mode wavelengths, and checked for the free pontoon. The results show very low discrepancies compared with a three-dimensional finite-element model solution, so this procedure may be applied generally, as well as to the problem of ship hull vibration. In conclusion, the possibility of calculating the values of effective parameters for multicell ship cross sections, utilizing the theory of folded structure and the finite-element method, is pointed out.

In this paper, one investigates the local-plate, distortional and global buckling behavior of thin-walled steel beams subjected to non-uniform bending moment diagrams, i.e. under the presence of longitudinal stress gradients. One begins by deriving a novel formulation based on Generalized Beam Theory (GBT), which (i) can handle beams with arbitrary open cross-sections and (ii) incorporates all the effects stemming from the presence of longitudinally varying stress distributions. This formulation is numerically implemented by means of the finite element method: one (i) develops a GBT-based beam finite element, which accounts for the stiffness reduction associated to applied longitudinal stresses with linear, quadratic and cubic variation, as well as to the ensuing shear stresses, and (ii) addresses the derivation of the equilibrium equation system that needs to be solved in the context of a GBT buckling analysis. Then, in order to illustrate the application and capabilities of the proposed GBT-based formulation and finite element implementation, one presents and discusses numerical results concerning (i) rectangular plates under longitudinally varying stresses and pure shear, (ii) I-section cantilevers subjected to uniform major axis bending, tip point loads and uniformly distributed loads, and (iii) simply supported lipped channel beams subjected to uniform major axis bending, mid-span point loads and uniformly distributed loads — by taking full advantage of the GBT modal nature, one is able to acquire an in-depth understanding on the influence of the longitudinal stress gradients and shear stresses on the beam local and global buckling behavior. For validation purposes, the GBT results are compared with values either (i) yielded by shell finite element analyses, performed in the code ANSYS, or (ii) reported in the literature. Finally, the computational efficiency of the proposed GBT-based beam finite element is briefly assessed.

When subjected to the dynamic load, the behavior of the structures is complex and makes it difficult to describe the process of the deformation. In the paper, an analytical model is presented to analyze the plastic deformation of the steel circular tubes. The aim of the research is to calculate the deflection and the deformation angle of the tubes. A series of assumptions are made to achieve the objective. During the research, we build a mathematical model for simply supported thin-walled metal tubes with finite length. At a specified distance above the tube, a TNT charge explodes and generates a plastic shock wave. The wave can be seen as uniformly distributed over the upper semicircle of the cross-section. The simplified Tresca yield domain can be used to describe the plastic flow of the circular tube. The yield domain together with the plastic flow law and other assumptions can finally lead to the solving of the deflection. In the end, tubes with different dimensions subjected to blast wave induced by the TNT charge are observed in experiments. Comparison shows that the numerical results agree well with experiment observations.
