Structural analysis of assemblages of thin-walled members

A matrix method for the analysis of structural systems composed of thin-walled members is presented. The matrix displacement analysis includes the effects of thin-walled non-uniform torsion theory, cross-section asymmetry, eccentric restraint as well as joint types peculiar to thin-walled members. The method is used for a prediction of the elastic behaviour of a set of representative test frames. The test frames were pitched-roof portals constructed from channel sections bent about their major-axis and supported by eccentric restraints simulating purlins and girts.

Precision of in-place concrete strenghts predicted using core strength correction factors obtained by weighted regression analysis

A two-step method for converting a concrete core compression test result to the in-place strength of the corresponding volume of concrete is presented. The strength of a non-standard core is first converted to the equivalent strength of a standard core, and then the standard core strength is converted to the equivalent in-place strength. Strength correction factors required for these conversions, obtained from weighted linear and nonlinear regression analyses presented elsewhere, are summarized. The accuracy of the predicted in-place strength is affected by the inherent error of the core strength measurement itself, and by the uncertainty of the various strength correction factors. It is shown that confidence intervals on the estimates of the strength correction factors obtained by regression analysis underestimate the true model error because the underlying models are imperfect. Instead, the accuracy of the strength correction factors is determined by a weighted regression analysis of ratios of observed-to-predicted values which accounts for the non-uniform variances of the dependent and independent variables. The coefficient of variation of the in-place strength predicted from a test of a 100 or 150 mm diameter core is between 4 and 5.5.%. If the in-place strength is predicted from a test of a 50 mm diameter core, the coefficient of variation of the predicted in-place strength is approximately 12.5%. These error estimates do not account for possible variation of in-place strength throughout the volume of the element being cored.

Structural reliability software at the University of California, Berkeley

The paper provides an overview of three software for structural reliability analysis developed at the University of California, Berkeley. These are CalREL, which is a general-purpose structural reliability code written in FORTRAN; FERUM, which is a collection of Matlab^® files that can be used for structural reliability analysis in conjunction with simple finite element models; and OpenSees, which is an object-oriented code for nonlinear structural response simulation with reliability capabilities. Reliability analysis methods featured by these software include FORM, SORM, Monte Carlo simulation, and various importance sampling methods. In addition, variable importance and sensitivity measures are provided.     

The characterisation of friction stir welding process effects on stiffened panel buckling performance

The introduction of advanced welding methods as an alternative joining process to riveting in the manufacture of primary aircraft structure has the potential to realise reductions in both manufacturing costs and structural weight. However, welding processes can introduce undesirable residual stresses and distortions in the final fabricated components, as well as localised loss of mechanical properties at the weld joints. The aim of this research is to determine and characterise the key process effects of friction stir welding assembly methods on stiffened panel static strength performance. Utilising experimentally validated finite element modelling methods, it is demonstrated that welding induced residual stresses have a significant influence, and that collapse behaviour is less sensitive to advanced process effects and process effect magnitudes than panel initial buckling behaviour.
