Finite Element Analysis of Cold-Formed Lipped Channel Columns with Web Stiffener

Article Preview

Abstract:

A total of 18 cold-formed lipped channel columns with web stiffener were analyzed by using the finite element program of ANSYS. Varying length and axial force eccentricity were concerned to observe the buckling modes, load carrying capacities and deformability of the channel section columns.All the results can be the reference for later experimental study.
