Buckling can be considered a failure due to structural instability. Both design and engineering applications where slender elements are involved, buckling failure must be verified. In this context this research presents a ...

En la presente investigación se realizará el análisis y diseño estructural de una torre de 40 pisos y 4 sótanos de concreto armado siguiendo normas peruanas y el cálculo de desempeño sísmico en el distrito de Santiago de ...

The behavior of buildings when subjected to severe seismic events, that force them to enter in the non-linear range is studied. Using simple three-dimensional models of structures, the influence that several parameters ...

Structural masonry buildings have become getting more common in Brazil, especially in buildings, of increasing heights, participating in government funding programs. Considering this context, the objective of this work ...

We present a novel numerical method to simulate crack growth in 3D, directly from the Computer-Aided Design (CAD) geometry of the component, without any mesh generation. The method is an isogeometric boundary element ...

This study presents an alternative three-dimensional geometric non-linear frame formulation based on generalized unconstrained vector and positions to solve structures and mechanisms subjected to dynamic loading. The ...

The static non-linear behavior of thin-walled composite beams is analyzed considering the effect of initial imperfections. A simple approach is used for determining the influence of imperfection on the buckling, prebuckling ...
