Based on Ježek method of computing the elastic-plastic buckling of the member under the axial compressive load and the bending moment, considering the initial geometric imperfection, the analytical expressions of calculating the ultimate load of buckling about the neutral axis with the maximum moment of inertia for an H-shaped member with flange outsides wrapped by carbon fibre are derived. Using the elastic-plastic finite element method and the theory of nonlinear buckling, the impact of the initial geometric imperfection on the H-shaped steel member wrapped by carbon fibre under the axial compressive load and the bending moment are analyzed and the numerical solutions of ultimate bearing capacity are obtained. By compared with the values of the finite element method (FEM), it shows that the analytical method in this paper is valid. Compared the reinforced effect of the carbon fibrer to the perfection member with the defect member, we find that the former is higher than the latter. The results of the example also show that the presence of initial geometric imperfection reduces the ultimate bearing capacity of the steel member to a great extent. The influence of defect member gradually decreases when the given moment rises.

Based on static Melan shakedown theorem, an elastic-plastic finite element method is presented to analyze the shakedown of saturated undrained foundation due to varied combined loadings, and the shakedown loadings under different patterns of loading combination are compared. At the same time, a comparison is given between the shakedown failure envelop under varied combined loading and the failure envelop of ultimate bearing capacity under static equilibrium, and it is found that the shakedown loading under varied combined loading is less than the ultimate bearing capacity under combined loading.

The present paper determines collapse moments of pressurized 30°–180° pipe bends incorporated with initial geometric imperfection under out-of-plane bending moment. Extensive finite element analyses are carried out considering material as well as geometric nonlinearity. The twice-elastic-slope method is used to determine collapse moment. The results show that initial imperfection produces significant change in collapse moment for unpressurized pipe bends and pipe bends applied to higher internal pressure. The application of internal pressure produces stiffening effect to pipe bends which increases collapse moment up to a certain limit and with further increase in pressure, collapse moment decreases. The bend angle effect on collapse moment reduces with the increase in internal pressure and bend radius. Based on finite element results, collapse moment equations are formed as a function of the pipe bend geometry parameters, initial geometric imperfection, bend angle, and internal pressure for elastic-perfectly plastic material models.

Element Method

The finite element method is used to compute the ultimate bearing capacity of a fictitious strip footing resting on the surface of c-φ weightless soils and a real strip footing buried in the c-φ soils with weight. In order to compare the numerical solutions with analytical solutions, the mainly existing analytical methods are briefly introduced and analyzed. To ensure the precision, most of analytical solutions are obtained by the corresponding formulas rather than table look-up. The first example shows that for c-φ weightless soil, the ABAQUS finite element solution is almost identical to the Prandtls closed solutions. Up to date, though no closed analytical solution is obtained for strip footings buried in c-φ soils with weight, the numerical approximate solutions obtained by the finite element method should be the closest to the real solutions. Apparently, the slip surface disclosed by the finite element method looks like Meyerhofs slip surface, but there are still some differences between the two. For example, the former having an upwarping curve may be another log spiral line, which begins from the water level of footing base to ground surface rather than a straight line like the latter. And the latter is more contractive than the former. Just because these reasons, Meyerhofs ultimate bearing capacity is lower than that of the numerical solution. Comparison between analytical and numerical solutions indicates that they have relatively large gaps. Therefore, finite element method can be a feasible and reliable method for computations of ultimate bearing capacity of practical strip footings.
