Stress-strain state prediction for statically indeterminate system with accounting for malfunctioning of rod elements production

Abstract

Abstract The use of pre-tension as a regulating mechanism in structures that are statically indeterminate rod systems usually implies the absence of initial forces and stresses. It is necessary to take into account its initial stresses from probabilistic positions and adjust the pre-tension parameters accordingly. The laws of distribution of deviations of rod elements or shipment-sized sets of details from nominal sizes and shapes are usually known. The technique of determination of reliable enough value of initial effort in the certain connection of interest of the statically indeterminate system (SIS) because of deviations of rod elements or shipment-sized sets of details from their nominal sizes and forms is presented. Thus, deviations of both rod elements and dispatch brands from the nominal sizes and forms are known to be random variables with symmetric laws of distribution. The task is solved in linear statement with result of research giving the opportunity to determine the value of initial effort using just one static design calculation.
