Abstract

For new section of aluminium alloy members there are still not enough researches on the mechanical properties and mechanism of action. The nonlinear finite element analysis (FEA) was carried out to study the mechanical properties of new section of aluminium alloy members under axial loading. In this paper, the method was based on FEA software, ANSYS. And geometric and material non-linearities were incorporated in the finite element model. Then the mechanical properties of new section and H-section were compared. Results show that the stability factors of the new section are between that of the strong axes of H-section and the weak axes of H-section.
