Behavior of circular CFT columns subject to axial force and bending moment
Ji-Hyun Kwak, Hyo-Gyoung Kwak and Jin-Kook Kim

 
Abstract
    The major objective of this paper is to evaluate the behavior and ultimate resisting capacity of circular CFT columns. To consider the confinement effect, proper material models with respect to the confinement pressure are selected. A fiber section approach is adopted to simulate the nonlinear stress distribution along the section depth. Material nonlinearity due to the cracking of concrete and the yielding of the surrounding steel tube, as well as geometric nonlinearity due to the P-
