The Difference

The out-of-plane secondary bifurcation buckling load-displacement equilibrium paths of the elastic circle pipe arch with and without out-of-plane brace at the top of the arch are traced using a new numerical tracing strategy. The out-of-plane secondary bifurcation buckling loads of the arch with the same sections and different rise-span ratios are obtained under the concentrated load at the top of the arch and the full span uniformly distributed load, which are compared with out-of-plane linear buckling load and in-plane primary buckling load. The calculation results show: for the same section circle pipe arches without the out-of-plane brace and under the concentrated load at the top the arch, the out-of-plane secondary buckling load is always less than the in-plane primary buckling load and the out-of-plane buckling will occur before the in-plane primary buckling. The out-of-plane secondary bifurcation buckling load of the arch with 0.2 rise-span ratio is the biggest. The bigger the rise-span ratio is, the bigger the difference between out-of-plane and in-plane buckling load. When the arch is subjected to full span uniformly distributed load, the out-of-plane buckling will also occur before the in-plane primary buckling and the out-of-plane secondary bifurcation buckling load of the arch with 0.4 rise-span ratio is the biggest. The difference between out-of-plane and in-plane buckling load of the arch with 0.2 rise-span ratio is the biggest. For the circle pipe arch with the out-of-plane brace at the top of the arch, the out-of-plane buckling load of the arch with 0.4 rise-span ratio is the biggest under the two load conditions. The brace can raise the out-of-plane buckling load significantly especially for the arch with big rise-span ratio and under full span load. The out-of-plane buckling will occur before the in-plane primary buckling when the arch is under full span uniformly distributed load. The out-of-plane buckling will occur before the in-plane primary buckling only when the arch is under concentrated load and the rise-span ratio of the arch is less than 0.3. No matter there is or not brace for the arch, the ultimate load carry capacity of the arches increase a little bit after the out-of-plane secondary buckling occurs.

The Mathematical Model

A stability analysis of an infinitely long web-stiffened, circular cylindrical sandwich shell under uniform axial compression is presented. The formulation begins with the establishment of a set of suitable large-deflection shell equations that forms the basis for the subsequent development of the buckling equations. The mathematical model corresponds to two face layers that are considered as thin shells and a thick core that is capable of resisting both transverse shear and circumferential extension. The associated eigenvalue problem is solved. Results show that the lowest buckling load is associated with the axisymmetric mode and is less than one half the buckling load of an equivalent single-layer shell.

Estimation Scheme

The present study proposes an efficient scheme to estimate elastic-plastic buckling load of a shallow grid dome stiffened by diagonal braces. The dome is circular in plan. It is assumed to be subject to a uniform vertical load and to be supported by a substructure composed of columns and anti-earthquake braces. Based on FEM parametric studies considering various configurations and degrees of local imperfections, a set of formulations are presented to estimate the elastic-plastic buckling load. In the scheme, the linear buckling load, elastic buckling load, and imperfection sensitivity are first presented in terms of related parameters, and the elasticplastic buckling load is then estimated by a semi-empirical formula in terms of generalized slenderness ratio using a corresponding plastic load. For the plastic load, the present scheme adopts a procedure that it is calculated by a linear elastic FEM analysis, while an alternative formula for the plastic load is also proposed based on a shell membrane theory. The validity of the estimation scheme is finally confirmed through comparison with the results based on FEM nonlinear analysis. The formulations are so efficient and simple that the estimation may be conducted for preliminary design purposes almost with a calculator. .
