The authors focused on buckling resistance assessment of steel-I-section perfect beam-
columns of the cross-section class 1 and 2, not susceptible to LT-buckling and subjected to …

Stiffness reduction offers a practical means of considering the detrimental influence of
geometrical imperfections, residual stresses and the spread of plasticity in the analysis and …

Current design standards for stainless steel such as ASCE 8-02 and EN 1993-1-4 prescribe
provisions for the design of cross-sections and members that account for material …

In this paper, the stability of steel members with a complex initial geometrical imperfection
pattern are analysed. This issue is extremely important in the case of slender structures …

Tuned mass damper (TMD) is considered a common and effective device in structural
control during catastrophic events such as earthquakes. This paper presents a promising …

This paper presents a parametric study of stiffness reduction models on rotary-and non-
rotary straightened hot-rolled steel W-shapes to examine if the models for non-rotary …

Stiffness reduction offers a practical means of considering the detrimental influence of
imperfections and the spread of plasticity on the strength and stability of steel structures. In …

Steel frame wind bracing systems are usually made of hot rolled profiles connected to frame
elements directly or through a gusset plate. The behaviour of angle bracing members is …

Przedstawiono metodę zaawansowanej analizy prętowych konstrukcji stalowych (płaskich
kratownic i ram) z niejawnym uwzględnieniem imperfekcji w tzw. funkcjach zastępczej …

This paper is of the state-of-the-art nature presenting aspects of modelling, methods of
analysis and the strategy used contemporary in indirect (component resistance based) and …
