This Finite Strip Method (FSM)-based software will enable users to perform an intuitive elastic buckling analysis of thin-walled structured members #Finite Strip Method #Elastic Buckling Analysis #Buckling Mode #FSM #Buckling #Elastic
The applications of the Finite Strip Method (FSM) in the analysis of various structural designs, such as bridges or tall buildings have numerous advantages, especially through their computational power capability, when compared to the Finite Element Method. Having dedicated software that provides such functionality is ideal, and this is exactly what FStr aims to provide.
Designed as a specialized tool that will provide users with the means to perform an analysis of the elastic buckling occurring in thin-walled structural elements, FStr comes equipped with a series of purpose-fit tools and features, which in integration with MATLAB’s working environment, can provide a way for analyzing and producing buckling mode representations.
The application supports the generation of both 2D and 3D buckling models, allowing users access to generating the critical buckling load, as well as its corresponding member length. The application relies on trigonometric functions in a longitudinal direction in series, which will yield an interpolation of the strip solution, therefore providing a suitable shape to any kind of end boundary condition.
Last but not least, the analysis process will produce signature curves, through a set of longitudinal lengths, offering users the choice of selecting whichever dataset they prefer for further analysis.
System requirements
What's new in FStr 1.4.0:
- New away of inserting the longitudinal lengths, in linear and log formats, in an easy and intuitive way;
- Log scale option in the vertical axis for the signature curve (very useful for viewing high and low load factors);
- New parametric sections: I-shape, Wide Flange, and T-shape sections;
- Verified and validated the cases of orthotropic materials. It includes transversal elastic modulus (Et), longitudinal elastic modulus (El), minor Poisson ratio (vtl), major Poisson ratio (vlt) and shear modulus (Glt), necessary to put in this order. In case of isotropic material, the Glt parameter is optional to insert.
