Inelastic buckling of tapered members with accumulated strain
Kim MC, Lee GC, Chang KC

 
Abstract
    This paper is concerned with inelastic load carrying capacity of tapered steel members with or without accumulated plastic strains resulted from previous loading histories. A finite element program is developed using stiffness matrices of tapered members and is applicable for analyses with material and geometric nonlinearity. Results of analyses are compared with other available solutions and with experimental results.
 
Key Words
