Abstract Collapse in steel structures is often controlled by loss of load carrying capacity of steel columns due to interactive buckling, which involves interactions between local and global (i.e., lateral and lateral torsional) buckling. Commonly used concentrated plastic hinge or fiber-based elements do not simulate the physics of this response, potentially leading to inaccuracy in performance assessment. A nonlinear fiber-beam-column element [termed the Torsion Fiber Element (TFE)] to simulate monotonic interactive buckling in steel beam-columns is presented. The element, implemented in the OpenSees platform, incorporates St. Venant as well as warping torsion through enrichment of strain interpolation functions, in addition to axial and flexural deformation modes. Local buckling is represented through a softening multiaxial constitutive relationship. The efficacy of this approach is examined by comparing its results against those obtained from continuum finite element simulations as well as experimental data on beam-columns subjected to monotonic loading. The comparisons indicate that the element can functionally represent the physics underlying interactive buckling, resulting in effective prediction of the overall monotonic load-deformation response, as well as internal deformation and stress fields. Limitations of the element in its current form are summarized, along with prospective improvements. |
