Efficient structures for geosynchronous spacecraft solar arrays. Phase 1, 2 and 3 [PDF]

open access: yes
Structural concepts for deploying and supporting lightweight solar-array blankets for geosynchronous electrical power are evaluated. It is recommended that the STACBEAM solar-array system should be the object of further study and detailed evaluation. The

A new finite element formulation for the lateral torsional buckling analyses of orthotropic FRP-externally bonded steel beams

open access: yesCurved and Layered Structures
The present study develops a new finite element (FE) formulation for the lateral torsional buckling (LTB) analyses of steel beams exteriorly bonded with orthotropic fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) layers.

Behaviour of parallel girders stabilised with U‐frames

open access: yesJournal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2010
Lateral torsional buckling is a key factor in the design of steel girders. Stability can be enhanced by cross‐bracing, reducing the effective length and thus increasing the ultimate capacity.

Probabilistic assessment of composite structures [PDF]

open access: yes
A methodology and attendant computer code were developed and are used to computationally simulate the uncertain behavior of composite structures. The uncertain behavior includes buckling loads, stress concentration factors, displacements, stress/strain ...
