Out-of-Plane Stability Analysis of Plane Tubular Trusses

Abstract:

To carry out of out-of-plane stability analysis of plane tubular trusses, nonlinear finite elements model based on spatial beam elements and simplified connection elements is deduced. To verifying the feasibility of the simplified joints stiffness model, numerical examples are build and results shows that the simplified finite elements model is comparatively accurate , and could be used in engineering design.
