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 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 are derived. Using the elastic-plastic finite element method and the theory of nonlinear buckling, the impact by initial geometric imperfections on the H-shaped steel member 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. The results of the example show that the presence of initial imperfections reduces the ultimate bearing capacity of the steel member to a great extent. It is also found that the influence of the initial geometric imperfection on the ultimate bearing capacity of member is smaller when the bending moment increases.

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 study of the existing data and steel structure design specification on node ultimate bearing capacity is limited to simply analyze its axial bearing capacity, but the study on the ultimate bearing capacity of the additional bending moment with nodes is very deficient. This article first briefly analyzed the size of the steel tube 's influence on the node additional bending moment from the aspects of node rigidity, and showed that basis and necessity of considering node additional bending moment in steel tube structure ,and then used three-dimensional four nodes elastic-plastic shell unit shell 181 and ideal elastic-plastic material to establish finite element model of K shape round steel tube tubular joint in the ANSYS finite element program, under the consideration of the geometric nonlinearity and material nonlinearity, respectively got the ultimate bearing capacity of K shape round steel tube tubular joint under the action of additional bending moment of different nodes ,analyzed the changes of mechanical property of the nodes after bearing of the additional bending moment, and showed that additional bending moment's influence rule on K shape round steel tube tubular joint ultimate bearing capacity.

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.
