The load-displacement curve for the L-shaped column, the deflection and load-strain curves for the mono columns were obtained by the axial compression experiment. The results show that the L-shaped column exhibits a flexural-torsional buckling failure mode. The numerical simulation by the finite element analysis shows that the bearing capacity and failure mode are in accordance with those of the axial compression experiment and the feasi- bility of the finite element analysis is proved. For the calculation of the bearing capacity of the L-shaped column com- posed of concrete-filled square steel tubes, an analytical method is proposed based on the theory of the elastic stability and spatial truss model. The results of the analytical method are in good agreement with those of the axial compression experiment and the finite element analysis.展开更多

To determine their vibration characteristics, this paper applied a mobility power flow method. Firstly, the L-shaped plate was divided into two substructures to simplify analysis. The coupled bending moment was then deduced by applying a continuous vibration property on the common edge. Next, the response on any point of the plate and the input and transmitted power flow formulas were calculated. Numerical simulations showed the distribution of the coupled bending moment and the response of the whole structure. The validity of this method was verified by the SEA approach.展开更多

It achieves >40% impedance bandwidth (VSWR<2) and stable radiation pattern across the passband. The triangular patch antenna with two orientations of L-shaped probe has almost the same characteristics, such as impedance bandwidth and radiation pattern. The bandwidth vs feeding position was also investigated, the broadband characteristic can be observed when the feeding position is only in a small segment along the centerline.展开更多

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of cross sectional dimensions on the behavior of L-shaped structural members and to assess their earthquake performance. In order to investigate L-shaped RC structural members, the special experiment setup and four type of 1/2 scaled specimens which have different aspect ratio were constructed. The specimens were loaded in line with the major principal axes direction laterally. Axial load ratio was 0.1 and cross section height to thickness ratios were' 3:1, 5:1, 8:1, 10:1. Cross section thickness was 120 mm which corresponds to (360:120), (600:120), (960:120), (1,200:120) wall legs cross sectional dimensions in mm. The specimens height was 1,500 mm, together with upper and lower slabs overall height was 2,000 mm. Concrete compression strength was 30 N/mm2, steel yield stress 420 N/mm2 and vertical reinforcement ratio was 1% for all specimens. According to the test results, the specimen of which the aspect ratio is 3 (360:120) has shown column behavior, the specimen of which the aspect ratio is 5 (600:120) has shown slender wall behavior and last two specimens of which the aspect ratios are 8 (960:120) and 10 (1,200:120) have shown squat wall behavior. When considering the cracking patterns and hysteretic behavior, since the aspect ratio 8, the specimens show flexure-shear interaction behavior and prone to brittle failure.展开更多
