Nonlinear inelastic analysis of concrete-filled steel tubular frames
Abstract This paper presents a reliable numerical procedure for the nonlinear inelastic analysis of concrete-filled steel tubular frames. Geometric nonlinearities are taken into account by the use of stability functions derived from the exact stability solution of a beam–column subjected to axial force and bending moments. The spread of plasticity over the cross section and along the member length is captured by tracing the uniaxial stress–strain relationships of each fiber on the cross sections located at the selected integration points along the member length. The nonlinear equilibrium equations are solved using an incremental-iterative scheme based on the generalized displacement control method because of its general numerical stability and efficiency. The accuracy of the proposed procedure is verified by comparisons of the obtained results with experimental data and existing solutions. The proposed numerical procedure proves to be a reliable tool for the nonlinear analysis of concrete-filled steel tubular structures.
Research highlights ► A fiber element is proposed for nonlinear inelastic analysis of CFT frames. ► A computer program is developed for the proposed element. ► The proposed program is proved to be an efficient tool for nonlinear analysis of CFT frames.
