Parametric study of timber shear walls
… have an effect on the response of shear walls. A parametric study was performed to determine the effect that aspect ratio (ratio of wall length to height) and openings have on the response of timber shear walls subjected to monotonic and seismic loading. Twenty-five shear wall models of various …

Parametric study of stresses in cooling-tower shells
Many attempts have been made in studying the structural behaviour of cooling tower shells, focusing more on the effect of wind on the structure and shape imperfections. However, little has been investigated on the most basic loading condition, i.e. self-weight load. This thesis focuses on a cooling …

Parametric study of stiffened steel containment shell structures
A FEM-based parametric study is undertaken to investigate the buckling behavior of meridionally and circumferentially stiffened steel cylindrical and conical shell frustum subjected to different load cases. This situation arises in different steel shell applications such as storage vessels (liquid, …
