Investigation of Local Buckling and Prediction of Fracture Onset in Hollow Section Steel Beams
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Alijani Moghaddam, Hassan (Supervisor)
Abstract
In this study, the behavior of cantilevered HSS beams under cyclic bending loading are modeled in order to study the buckling and post buckling behavior have been investigated by Finite Element method.The analytical results are fairly in good agreement with the experimental results. The analysis demonstrates that when local buckling occurs in near of connection area, subsequently, the strain grows severely that is entitled as strain rise and then, is caused fracture. As a result, local buckling limits the ability of these members to form stable plastic hinges and the behavior is highly dependent on the width-thickness (b/t) and the depth-thickness ratio (h/t).Also, the thesis has been tried...

Abstract
Feed-in tariff (FiT) is one of the most efficient ways that many governments throughout the world use to stimulate investment in renewable energies (REs) technology. For governments, financial management of the policy could be challenging as it needs a considerable amount of budget to support RE producers during the long remuneration period. In this paper, it has been illuminated that the early growth of REs capacity could be a temporary boost. And the socio-economic structure of the system will backlash the policy if some social mechanisms are not considered. Social tolerance for paying REs tax and potential investors’ trust emanated from budget-related mechanisms -which have rarely been...
