The application of stainless steel materials in civil engineering has begun to attract attention
over the last decade. Nevertheless, most studies of stainless steel structures still use the …

Stainless steel exhibits strain hardening characteristics under cyclic loading, hence
presenting significant potential for application in seismic design. However, the current …

In this paper, an experimental program on cyclic loading of austenitic stainless steel
specimens is presented. The program encompasses a series of forty specimens subjected …

The existing experimental data on stainless steel are limited to a small strain range (<
1.50%), which is not enough to analyze the response of stainless steel structures in large …

This paper studies the cyclic hardening characteristics of commonly used structural stainless
steel types and grades including austenitic stainless steel grades S30408 and S31608 …

The fundamental behaviour of stainless steel tubular hollow section members under axial
cyclic loading is presented in this paper. An experimental investigation on eight test …

Stainless steel is an excellent construction material due to its high ductility, strain hardening,
durability and aesthetic characteristics. To date, most studies on stainless steel have been …

This paper describes numerical modeling of the structural response of stainless steel hollow
sections. The aim of the investigation was to develop a consistent approach to the modeling …

Stainless steel is a family of steel alloys with a minimum of approximately 10.5% mass of
chromium. Unlike carbon steel, it has high corrosion and heat resistant properties. Stainless …

In order to study the constitutive relation of Chinese-made austenitic stainless steel S31608
(EN 1.4401, AISI 316) under monotonic and cyclic loading, different types of coupons were …
