A parametric study for the behaviour of steel plate-anchor assembly embedded in concrete under cyclic loading
Abstract: Steel plate-anchor assembly embedded in concrete is a common type of connection system used for connecting structural steel members to concrete members. These assemblies are subjected to different loading cases depending on their use. Since the behaviour of such assemblies is quite complex and depends on a number of factors associated with different components, it was decided to adopt finite-element technique to obtain a reasonably accurate analytical solution for the …

Flexure of Thick Fixed Beams Subjected to Varying Load using Shear Deformation Theory
Abstract: A refined shear deformation theory for flexural analysis of thick beams, considering transverse shear deformation effects, is developed. The number of variables as in the first order shear deformation theory is kept in present theory. The important feature of present theory is that the transverse shear stresses can directly be obtained using constitutive relations. The theory does not demand shear correction factors. The principle of virtual work is used to …
