Cyclic lateral-torsional buckling of short I-beams

This report concerns the inelastic lateral buckling and post-buckling behavior of short I-beams subjected to cyclically reversing loads. The eccentrically braced frame, used in the earthquake resistant design of building structures, provides an application in which lateral buckling of short I-beams under cyclic loading is relevant. Our main purpose is to establish some benchmarks with which to assess the consequences of lateral buckling of active link beams in eccentrically braced frames.
