1. Finite element computational development for thermo-mechanical analysis of plane steel structures exposed to fire
Abstract This article presents a numerical formulation based on finite element procedures for application in nonlinear thermo-mechanical analyses of steel planar structures under fire condition. The mechanical properties of structural elements degrade when subjected to high temperatures, resulting in significant reductions in strength and stiffness. Under th

2. Optimization of geometrically nonlinear truss structures under dynamic loading
Abstract The goal of this article is to present the formulation of the optimization problem of truss structures with geometric nonlinearity under dynamic loads and provide examples of this problem. The formulated optimization problem aims to determine the cross-sectional area of the bars that minimizes the weight of the structure, imposing constraints on nod

3. Analytical determination of the vibration frequencies and buckling loads of slender reinforced concrete towers
Abstract This study focused on improving the design of slender structures with reinforced concrete (RC) telecommunication towers as the main application. Analytical procedure based on Rayleigh’s method to compute the first natural vibration frequency and the critical buckling load was development. All the nonlinearities present in the system were considere

4. FE Modeling and Seismic Performance Evaluation of Hybrid SMA-Steel RC Beam-Column Joints
Abstract Severe permanent deformations of buildings during earthquakes have been found as one of the major causes of the instability and failure of structures. The application of superelastic Shape Memory Alloy rebars at the plastic hinge region of reinforced concrete beam-column joints (SESMA-BCJs) can eliminate the seismic residual deformations. Such self-

5. Nonlinear analysis of shape memory alloy beam under the thermal and the mechanical loads
ABSTRACT In this paper, the tension-compression asymmetry of shape memory alloys (SMA), subjected to the thermal and the mechanical loads, is sufficiently explored. Taking a basis of stress-strain relationship and a concern for critical phase transformation, a new simple model of mechanics is established. Through the deflection lines under different load con

6. Dynamic analysis of a concrete chimney considering the aerodynamic damping
Resumo Tradicionalmente, estruturas submetidas ao vento são avaliadas através de análises estáticas com carregamentos equivalentes, onde a influência da resposta flutuante é levada em conta por meio do fator de rajada. Essa metodologia é aplicável a estruturas suficientemente rígidas para não apresentarem resposta dinâmica ponderável [ ]. Estrutu

7. Structural reliability analysis of steel plane frames with semi-rigid connections
Abstract The design codes for structural design traditionally establish the adoption of partial safety factors to deal with uncertainties. These standards do not allow one to know the real probabilities of failure of a structure. What is needed, from a practical and scientific point of view, is a more consistent approach, based on reliability theory. This ar

8. Modeling the creep behavior of GRFP truss structures with Positional Finite Element Method
Abstract This paper presents the development of a formulation, based on Positional Finite Element Method, to describe the viscoelastic mechanical behavior of space trusses. The numerical method used was chosen due to its efficiency in the applications concerning nonlinear numerical analyses. The formulation describes the positional variation over time under

9. Nonlinear Forced Vibration Analysis of Dielectric-Elastomer Based Micro-Beam with Considering Yeoh Hyper-Elastic Model
Abstract The present study investigates nonlinear forced vibration of dielectric elastomer-based micro-beam. The nonlinear terms in beam equation are geometric and material one. Geometric nonlinearity is considered by von-Karman strain displacement relationship and the material nonlinearity is modeled with Yeoh hyper-elastic model. Galerkin and Multiple scal

10. Time Domain Modeling and Simulation of Nonlinear Slender Viscoelastic Beams Associating Cosserat Theory and a Fractional Derivative Model
Abstract A broad class of engineering systems can be satisfactory modeled under the assumptions of small deformations and linear material properties. However, many mechanical systems used in modern applications, like structural elements typical of aerospace and petroleum industries, have been characterized by increased slenderness and high static and dynamic

11. Study Neo-Hookean and Yeoh Hyper-Elastic Models in Dielectric Elastomer-Based Micro-Beam Resonators
Abstract Micro-bridge resonator with dielectric elastomer that is sandwiched between two electrodes is studied here with geometric and material nonlinearity. Geometric nonlinearity is introduced with Von-Karman strain-displacement relationship. For material nonlinearity that is modeled rarely in articles, two hyper-elastic models are used here. Governing equ

12. A general method for designing non-symmetrical composite steel and concrete columns
Abstract The study of non-symmetrical composite columns is complex and European and North American standards only approach this issue superficially. In this text, a new proposal is presented for non-symmetrical composite column design subject to biaxial bending and axial compression, based on the compatibility of the deformation method, which considers the n
