A Design Method for Semi-Rigid Steel Frame via Pre-Established Performance-Based Connection Database
With decades of research, semi-rigid beam-to-column connections have been widely accepted. However, most studies have been restricted to the local connection level, leaving system-oriented analysis and design methods with a meager investigation, which ...

Dynamic Analysis of a Large Deployable Space Truss Structure Considering Semi-Rigid Joints
Joints are widely used in large deployable structures but show semi-rigidity due to performance degradation and some nonlinear factors affecting the structure’s dynamic characteristics.

Free vibration analysis of semi-rigid frames with elastic rotational restraints and inhomogeneous members [PDF]
The present research deals with the free vibration analysis of functionally graded (FG) frames with semi-rigid connection and elastic supports. Flexibility of elastic supports and semi-rigid connection are modeled with linear rotational springs. Moreover,

Matrix formulation of dynamic design of structures with semi-rigid connections [PDF]
The structures with semi-rigid connections comprise systems with the connections in joints which are not absolutely rigid, but allow, in general, some relative movements in directions of generalized displacements.

Redistribution of the influences in systems with semi-rigid joints on elastic foundations [PDF]
Most often, in the case of typefied prefabricated systems, foundations are designed and constructed as prefabricated elements as well. When the structure is exposed to high intensity loading and founded on a weak soil, beam foundations are often used ...

Rotational stiffness determination of the semi-rigid timber-steel connection
In this research, the component method implementation for determination of the rotational stiffness of timber-steel connection is shown. Component method is one of the most commonly used methods for determination of the bending moment-rotation relation ...

Nonlinear Analysis of Rotational Springs to Model Semi-Rigid Frames
This paper explains the mathematical foundations of a method for modelling semi-rigid unions. The unions are modelled using rotational rather than linear springs.

Optimization of frames with semi-rigid connections [PDF]
This work describes a computer-based method for the optimum design of steel frameworks accounting for the behaviour of semi-rigid connections. The procedure explicitly accounts for both connections and members by taking connection stiffnesses and member sizes as continuous-valued and discrete-valued design variables, respectively.
