Analysis on Strength, Stiffness and Stability for Shippment Structure of Hull Subsection Qing-dun Zeng1,a and Meng-hua Qiao1,b 1School of Civil Engineering and Transportation, South China University of Technology, Guangzhou 510640, China aemqdzeng@scut.edu.cn, b13570496921@163.com Keywords: Shippment structure, Finite element method, Strength, Stiffness, Stability.
The mechanical behavior of unconventional steel structure has always been one of the hot issues in civil engineering at all times.
For many mechanical problems in engineering technology, although the basic equations and boundary conditions have been derived, the analytic solutions of only a few simple natures and inerratic boundaries can be obtained, while most questions can not be worked out by analytic methods.
So solving complex engineering questions by numerical method become more and more common, and finite element method is a kind of completely effective numerical method [1-3].
The cantilevered unconventional steel structure in this project is extremely rare in engineering field.

Introduction Due to smaller space, lighter weight, better leak tightness, higher pressure resistance and better reliability, shape memory alloy (SMA) joint was considered as an very important joint in the aviation and other engineering fields.
In engineering practice, to improve the leak tightness, the join strength and the contact erosion of metals with different electric potentials, the coat between the joint and the pipe or the special grease and paint on the surface of the pipe were used.

Non-destructive testing (NDT) methods are largely used to examine engineering materials without damaging its future usefulness.
Some reliabilities were lower than 0.95, and some theoretical results of MOR in Table 2 were more than the test results, and these were fallibility for application in engineering structure.
Table 5 The reliability of each ameliorated NDT results Relative humidity[%] Out-plane flexural vibration In-plane flexural vibration Longitudinal vibration 40 0.992436 0.989185 0.996718 50 0.999957 1.000000 1.000000 60 0.999055 0.999997 0.999914 70 0.972350 0.993687 0.991516 All reliability results were more than 0.95, so these three NDT test methods can be applied in engineering structure, if the linear regression formula was ameliorated.
