Sensitivity analysis of the effect of initial imperfections on the (i) ultimate load and (ii) fatigue behaviour of steel plate girders
The study is divided into two parts: (i) in the first one, the plate girder (Fig 1) is considered to be exposed to quasiâ€constant loading (ie to loads which are either constant or repeated in a very small number of cycles), while (ii) in the other one, the girder is assumed to be subjected to repe...
