Buckling of longitudinal reinforcement in reinforced concrete (RC) columns or walls is commonly seen with a length equal to the spacing between stirrups (local buckling), but experimental observations have shown that the ...

An exact non-linear formulation of the equilibrium of elastic prismatic rods subjected to compression and planar bending is presented, electing as primary displacement variable the cross-section rotations and taking into ...

Cold-formed steel members are subject to failure caused by buckling, normally under loads smaller than those corresponding to partial or total yielding of the cross section. The buckling of members in bending can be ...

Global buckling of slender walls, reported only in a few laboratory tests before 2010, became a critical issue in design of reinforced concrete buildings after it was observed following the 2010 Mw 8.8 Chile earthquake and ...

Research on the structural behavior and buckling of vertical, aboveground tanks employed to store oil and fuels have significantly increased during the past two decades. Interest in this shell form is related not just to ...

This paper focuses on the buckling and post-buckling of horizontal steel tanks with conical end-caps, supported on discrete saddles, under pressure caused by internal vacuum and liquid pressure. Linear bifurcation, as well ...

Cold-formed steel members are subject to failure caused by buckling, normally under loads smaller than those corresponding to partial or total yielding of the cross section. The buckling of members in bending can be ...
