ULTIMATE CAPACITY PREDICTION OF ELLIPTICAL SECTION COLUMNS IN COMPRESSION AND BENDING BY SOFT COMPUTING METHODS
Abstract
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the use of elliptical profiles as having high strength and being as hot-rolled or cold-formed. Elliptical sections provide superiority with their minor and major axis properties as well as their aesthetic features. In this study, by using soft computing methods such as gene expression programming and artificial neural network, numerical models were developed to estimate the load carrying capacity of elliptical columns under compression and bending. For this, training and testing of the models were conducted using experimental data from the existing literature. Nine different variables were utilized, namely, buckling axis, eccentricity in the y and z directions, large and small outer diameters of the section, wall thickness, yield and tensile strength of the steel and column length. The proposed models were statistically examined. Moreover, the robustness and repeatability of the proposed models were analyzed in comparison with actual experimental data; for the testing data set, it was observed that the correlation coefficient for the gene expression programming model was 0.84 while that for the artificial neural network model was 0.99.
