A theoretical model applicable to the thin-walled laminated composite box beams is presented by taking into account all the structural couplings coming from the material anisotropy and the shear deformation effects. The current composite beam includes the transverse shear and the restrained warping induced shear deformation by using the first-order shear deformation beam theory. Seven governing equations are derived for the coupled axial-flexural-torsional-shearing buckling based on the principle of minimum total potential energy. Based on the present analytical model, three different types of finite composite beam elements, namely, linear, quadratic and cubic elements are developed to analyze the flexural, torsional, and buckling problems. In order to demonstrate the accuracy and superiority of the beam theory and the finite beam elements developed by this study,numerical solutions are presented and compared with the results obtained by other researchers and the detailed threedimensional analysis results using the shell elements of ABAQUS. Especially, the influences of the modulus ratio and the simplified assumptions in stress-strain relations on the deflection, twisting angle, and critical buckling loads of composite box beams are investigated.展开更多

Using the stiffness matrix of the beam element, a finite element program for computing thin-walled box steel beams is developed. And the program can take the section distortion and warping effects into account. The influences of diaphragm spacing on the mechanical behavior of thin-walled box beams are analyzed by the program. The numerical analysis shows that setting diaphragms have the greatest influence on the distortion normal stress, while there is very little influence on the bending normal stress. Only when the distance of adjacent diaphragms decreases to a certain value, will the distortion normal stress in the thin-walled box beam obviously reduce under the distortion load. Finally, a distortion-warping coefficient γ is introduced for simplifying the calculation of the longitudinal normal stress of thin-walled box beams. When the ratio of diaphragms adjacent space L to the maximum section dimension H is less than 2, the distortion-warping coefficient γ tends to one, which means that the distortion normal stress of the thin-walled box beam tends to zero, and the effect of the section distortion can be ignored.展开更多
