This paper proposes a new residual stress model for hot-rolled wide flange steel cross
sections. For this purpose, a dataset of 85 residual stress measurements is first assembled …

Residual stresses in straight hot rolled wide flange sections are well documented and have
been investigated in the recent past. However, to the knowledge of the authors, residual …

Residual stresses in cold-formed sections may play a significant role in determining their
behaviour and strength. Laboratory measurements of residual stresses by destructive …

The manufacturing process of structural wide flange steel sections introduces residual
stresses in the material. These stresses due to hot-rolling or welding influence the inelastic …

A thermo-mechanical finite element analysis model is developed to predict residual stress
patterns in hot-rolled sections. The model is first verified against experimental …

This study revisits residual stress models of cold-formed rectangular hollow sections
(CFRHS). Residual stresses of CFRHS have a complex distribution that varies along the …

Wide-flange members are hot-rolled to their final shapes and subsequently air-cooled,
during which residual stresses are developed due to nonuniform cooling. Both global and …

Abstract The recently incorporated Direct Strength Method (DSM) rules for shear in the North
American Specification for Cold-Formed Steel Structural Members (NAS S100: 2012) consist …

Residual stresses can occur through a variety of mechanisms, and welding is one of
mechanisms. This kind of stress variation through materials can be very complex and can …

The residual stresses and strains in cold-formed steel members are a result of the
manufacturing process. It has been shown that the variation of residual stresses through the …
