BookPublisher: Berlin, Germany : Wilhelm Ernst & Sohn, ©2011Description: 1 online resource (xii, 540 pages) : illustrations.ISBN: 9783433600771; 3433600775; 9783433601259; 3433601259.Subject(s): Building, Iron and steel | Structural design | Finite element method | Building, Iron and steel | Finite element method | Structural design | Electronic booksOnline resources: Wiley Online Library Summary: "This book presents the design of steel structures using finite element methods (FEM)according to the current state of the art in Germany and the rest of Europe. After a short introduction on the basics of the design, this book illustrates the FEM with a focus on internal forces, displacements, critical loads and modal shapes. Next to finite element procedures for linear calculations considering the stress states of normal force, biaxial bending and warping torsion, non-linear calculations and the stability cases of flexural buckling, lateral torsional buckling and plate buckling are concentrated on significantly. In this context, design procedures for stability according to the standard Eurocode 3 is introduced and discussed. In addition, important fundamental issues are covered, such as the determination of cross-section properties as well as the elastic and plastic cross-section resistance. Complementary, finite element procedures for cross sections are dealt with, which will have an increasing importance in the future."-- Provided by publisher.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 528-533) and index.
