Strength of biaxially loaded orthotropic plates

Thin-Walled Structures, 2012
Abstract An approximate and simple method for rectangular orthotropic plates, loaded biaxially along two mutually perpendicular directions is presented. The theory is based on the energy method and it is free from difficult calculations such as those encountered when large deflection theory is used.

Finite Deformation of Biaxially Loaded Columns

Journal of the Structural Division, 1972
An analysis is presented within the context of finite deformation theory to describe the behavior of linearly elastic members of thin-walled open cross section subjected to biaxial bending and a co...

Load biaxiality and fracture: Synthesis and summary

Engineering Fracture Mechanics, 1990
The question of load biaxiality strongly affecting almost all of the characteristics of brittle fracture behavior of a cracked body is investigated. Results of research published piecemeal over the years by the authors have shown that the stress and displacement fields, the elastic strain energy density, and the maximum shear stress near the crack tip ...

The design of biaxially loaded columns by ultimate load methods

Magazine of Concrete Research, 1960
Summary The paper describes a method of defining the curves relating ultimate load and moment for rectangular columns having an equal area of steel in each face, and subjected to any radial eccentricity of loading. This leads to a method of accurate and rapid design. The validity of the approach is demonstrated by case analysis.

Fracture Toughness Relation in Biaxial Loading

Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance, 2001
The fracture toughness relation (FTR) in biaxial loading of a body containing a slanting crack has been analyzed. A basic requirement for the validity of the FTR is discussed. A criterion based on the energy release rate in each mode is presented and compared with the experimental data.

Biaxial load effects in fracture mechanics

Engineering Fracture Mechanics, 1978
Abstract Our investigation into the effects of load biaxiality thus far, has produced several findings which, in our opinion, are deemed to be important. 1. (a) The standard expressions for elastic stress and displacement in the crack-tip region, i.e. the so-called “singular-solution’, cannot be considered to be approximations that are acceptable

Crack initiation under biaxial loading

Engineering Fracture Mechanics, 1988
Abstract In this paper the crack initiation under biaxial loading is studied. The crack extension angle and the critical stress of fracture are determined for various values of the crack inclination angle and for various values of the biaxial factor k . The Det.-criterion, developed by the author, was used.

Biaxially Loaded Beam-Column Analysis

Journal of the Structural Division, 1971
A computerized numerical approach is presented for computing the maximum load carrying capacity of steel columns under biaxially eccentric load with eccentricities of loading different at each end. The computed results are compared with the existing analytical and experimental studies and good agreement is observed.

Influence of load biaxiality on the fracture load of center cracked sheets

International Journal of Fracture, 1982
Analysis of the problem of a plane infinite elastic body with a centrally located crack subject to uniform biaxial load along the remote outer boundaries, indicates that loads applied parallel to the crack influence the value of the critical (fracture) tensile load applied perpendicular to it, with the Poisson ratio of the material determining the ...

Design of Biaxially Loaded Rectangular Footings

Journal of the Structural Division, 1974
A biaxially loaded rectangular footing, loaded such that a portion of its area is not exerting pressure on the soil, does not lend itself to a direct or closed-form solution. Numerical methods are available for analysis of such footings. Charts to aid in the design of the footings are presented.
