Currently, the frame structures with special-shaped concrete-filled steel tubular columns have been widely used in super high-rise buildings. Those structural members can be used to improve architectural space. To investigate the seismic behavior of spatial composite frames that were constructed by connecting steel beams to L-shaped concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns, a finite element analysis (FEA) model using commercial finite element software ABAQUS was proposed to simulate the behavior of the composite spatial frames under a static axial load on columns and a fully-reversed lateral cyclic load applied to frames in this paper. Several nonlinear factors, including geometry and material properties, were taken into account in this FEA model. Four spatial specimens were designed, and the corresponding experiments were conducted to verify the proposed FEA model. Each testing specimen was two-story structure consisting of eight single span steel beams and four L-shaped CFST columns. The test results showed that the proposed FEA model in this paper could evaluate the behavior of the composite spatial frames accurately. Based on the results of the nonlinear analysis, the stress developing progress of columns is investigated. The load transferring mechanism and failure mechanism are also determined. The results are discussed and conclusions about the behavior of those spatial frame structures are presented.

By using finite element software ABAQUS, the nonlinear finite element analysis of earthquake resistance behavior of T-shaped concrete-filled rectangular composite steel tubular columns is carried out, furthermore, the analysis results and the corresponding experiment results are compared. The results indicate that the calculated value of ultimate bearing capacity is less than the experimental value, and the results of FEM analysis can match the experiment results better, and thus, it can better reflect the earthquake resistance behaviors of the specimens.

This paper presents the results of dynamic responses and fire resistance of concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) frame structures in fire conditions by using the nonlinear finite element method. Both strength and stability criteria are considered in the collapse analysis. The frame structures are constructed with circular CFST columns and steel beams of I-sections. In order to validate the finite element solutions, the numerical results are compared with those from a fire resistance test on CFST columns. The finite element model is then adopted to simulate the behavior of frame structures in fire. The structural responses of the frames, including the critical temperature and fire-resisting limit time, are obtained for the ISO-834 standard fire. Parametric studies are carried out to show their influence on the load capacity of the frame structures in fire. Suggestions and recommendations are presented for possible adoption in future construction and design of similar structures.

Concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns are widely used in construction due to effective resistance to compression and bending joint action. However, currently, there is no generally accepted effective calculation method considering both nonlinearities of the materials and lateral compression. The article proposes the finite element analysis method of concrete-filled steel tubular columns in a physically nonlinear formulation by reducing a three-dimensional problem to a two-dimensional one based on the hypothesis of plane sections. The equations of Geniev’s concrete theory of plasticity are used as relations establishing the relationship between stresses and strains. The technique was tested by comparing the solution with the calculation in a three-dimensional formulation in the LIRA-SAPR software package and with the experimental data of A.L. Krishan and A.I. Sagadatov. It has been established that the effective area of operation of circular-section columns are small eccentricities of the longitudinal force. The proposed approach can be applied to analyzing the stress–strain state and bearing capacity of pipe-concrete columns of arbitrary cross-sections. There are no restrictions on the composition of concrete, and the shell material can be steel and fiberglass.

The effective length of concrete filled steel tubular (CFST) frame columns is a key parameter to determine its ultimate strength for engineering design. There was no special design code, so engineers usually got the values according with specification for steel structure. This may cause error in some degree. Based on liner and non-linear buckling analysis respectively, the overall stability of a typical planar composite frame with CFST columns and steel beams was performed in this paper. By comparing the results of finite element method with current approach, some primary conclusions were given to refer for engineering practice on the composite frames.

Recently, polygon hole castellated steel beams have been studied and applied which had better social and economic benefits. But it brings more difficulties to extend castellated steel components that less studies of castellated bending members. In this essay, ANSYS that is a kind of finite element software had been used to analyze castellated bending members, and characteristics of stability bearing capacity in moment plane of regular hexagon hole castellated steel components had been studied that can provide references to engineering design.

Abstract Because the structural integrity of brake systems and tires can be related to the temperature, this work proposes a transient heat transfer finite element analysis (FEA) model to study the overheating in drum brake systems used in trucks and urban buses. To understand the mechanics of overheating, some constructive variants have been modeled regarding the assemblage: brake, rims, and tires. The model simultaneously studies the thermal energy generated by brakes and tires and how the heat is transferred and dissipated by conduction, convection, and radiation. The simulated FEA data and the experimental temperature profiles measured with thermocouples have been compared giving good correlation.
