Abstract

In many branches of structural engineering, non-linear mechanics in particular, experimental investigations are considered to be as important as the analytical investigations. This paper presents a servo-controlled testing system using a single or plural microcomputer or microcomputers as its core, and a technique is reported on the precise detection of the load-carrying capacity and the deteriorating properties of thinwalled steel structures under repetitive loading causing large elasto-plastic deformations. Several series of buckling tests have been conducted so far on the following test specimens: steel stub columns with cross sections of cruciforms, channels, boxes; axially compressed cylindrical shells and the steel box beam-columns under bi-axial loading simulating earthquake excitations.
