A Signature Curve for Cold-Formed Channel Sections in Pure Shear (No. R919)
Published 2011Thin-walled sections in compression and/or bending may undergo one of the three modes of local, distortional or overall (Euler) buckling, or combinations of these. The Semi-Analytical Finite Strip Method (SAFSM) developed ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Inelastic Buckling of Monosymmetric I-Beams (No. R920)
Published 2011Methods of designing steel monosymmetric I-beams against lateral buckling are not well supported by research. For this paper, the inelastic buckling of monosymmetric steel I-beams under moment gradient was studied and ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Material and Geometric Non-linear Isoparametric Spline Finite Strip Analysis of Perforated Thin-Walled Steel Structures (No. R910)
Published 2010The isoparametric spline finite strip method (ISFSM) is an efficient numerical method which is mostly suitable for analysing prismatic structures. It is able to simulate complex geometries such as holes and can handle ...Open AccessReport, Research -

Shear Buckling of Channel Sections with Simply Supported Ends using the Semi-Analytical Finite Strip Method (No. R931)
Published 2013Buckling of thin-walled sections in pure shear has been recently investigated using the Semi-Analytical Finite Strip Method (SAFSM) to develop the “signature curve” for sections in shear. The method assumes that the buckle ...Open AccessReport, Research
