Machine learning-driven web-post buckling resistance prediction for high-strength steel beams with elliptically-based web openings [PDF]
The use of periodical elliptically-based web (EBW) openings in high strength steel (HSS) beams has been increasingly popular in recent years mainly because of the high strength-to-weight ratio and the reduction in the floor height as a result of allowing

Web-post buckling prediction resistance of steel beams with elliptically-based web openings using Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) [PDF]
This paper aims to propose an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model that predicts accurately web-post buckling resistance and failure mode of steel beams with elliptically-based openings. A total of 4,344 and 5,400 geometrical models, were developed by finite element method (FEM) and used to train, validate and test the ANN model for the web-post ...

Optimisation of novel elliptically-based web opening shapes of perforated steel beams [PDF]
A new study was carried out and presented herein, on the optimisation of novel elliptically-based web opening shapes which enhance the structural behaviour of the perforated beams as well as lead to economic design in terms of both manufacture and usage.

In this paper, the influence of the web-post geometric parameters on the shear buckling resistance of perforated steel beams with previously proposed novel non-standard elliptically-based web openings is investigated. An economical and practical approach to estimate the web-post buckling resistance in accordance with EUROCODE 3 and the buckling ...

There has been an increase in the use of high-strength steel, as it provides lightweight structural members by satisfying environmental and economic issues. This paper aims to implement high-strength steels in the web-post buckling resistance equation, which was based on the truss model according to EUROCODE 3, presented previously by the authors.

FE parametric study of RWS/WUF-B moment connections with elliptically-based beam web openings under monotonic and cyclic loading [PDF]
This paper provides numerical results investigating the behaviour of steel web-perforated beams with different shaped single openings located close to beam-to-column connections under monotonic and cyclic loading. In particular, the beams considered feature circular and patented elliptically-based perforations.

Revealing the respiratory system of the coffee berry borer (Hypothenemus hampei; Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) using micro-computed tomography. [PDF]
The coffee berry borer (Hypothenemus hampei) is the most economically important insect pest of coffee globally. Micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) was used to reconstruct the respiratory system of this species for the first time; this is the smallest

Behaviour of Steel I Beams with Web Openings [PDF]
This paper aims to study the behavior of steel I beams with web openings. However, web openings might lead to a noteworthy reduction in the load-carrying capacity of beams, but can also be so supportive and essential from an economic point of view.
