Sentence examples for member strength from inspiring English sources

A design procedure was also developed to compute the member strength of hybrid beams.

The sectional failure surface method is introduced for member strength checking.

A crane member strength law is found by fitting fatigue life distribution parameters using finite element results and experimental data.

A finite element model is built to conduct parametric studies on the influential factors of member strength.

The benefits of prestressing, in terms of increased member strength and stiffness, are demonstrated, and optimal prestress levels are investigated.

Tests indicate that the new joint concept presented herein using glued wood-to-steel plate joints can possibly reduce the cost by matching joint strength to member strength.

The calculated member strengths based on these two design provisions may show significant difference in some cases.

The scatter was attributed mainly to inaccurate predictions of the column buckling and bending end points of the design beam column interaction curves (i.e. member strengths under pure compression and pure bending, respectively) and inaccurate interaction factors.

Since the presented approach uses stiffness reduction functions that fully take into account the deleterious influence of imperfections and the spread of plasticity on the structural response and member strengths, it obviates the need of using member design equations, and only requires cross-section strength checks.

Individual member strengths are then determined maintaining the strength proportions assigned at the start of the design process.

In DBPD which is akin to performance control, member strengths and stiffnesses are assigned rather than tested.
