Abstract

A rigid-plastic analytical formulation for the analysis of laterally loaded tubular members is presented. Various boundary boundary conditions are studied together with different load distributions. The interaction effectof simultaneously acting lateral load and axial load is also investigated. The analytical results are compared with the predictions of an elasto-plastic finite element program including large displacement effects. It is demosntrated that simple rigid-plastic methods represent a useful tool for ultimate load analysis of bracing elements in offshore platforms.
