This document discusses several recent studies on lateral torsional buckling in steel beams. It summarizes research on using analytical formulas that integrate elastic restraint at support nodes to more accurately model boundary conditions and calculate critical buckling moments. It also reviews work analyzing the lateral torsional buckling strength of corrugated web girders and castellated steel beams through advanced finite element simulations. Recent experimental tests on high strength steel beams are described that evaluated the effects of initial imperfections and residual stresses.

It is well known, that the classical beam theories, which neglected, transverse shear
deformation have often failed to predict the behavior of closed section beams in
lateral buckling resistance. Within this context, many investigations have been
dedicated to the effects of shear deformations on the behavior of composite thin
walled structures under bending and torsion loads. They used a new hyperbolic
plate and Eringen’s theories to investigate the effects of small-scale.provided their
research on the effect of shear deformation on mechanical buckling of tapered
beams in two open and closed bisymmetric sections. The under-consideration
tapered beam was exposed to combination of flexural and axial forces . (Osmani
et al, 2018)

These elements have the simultaneous advantages of both fiber polymer


composites and thin-walled cross-sections and are expanding due to their excellent
features such as high strength and stability, optimal use of structural materials,
volume reduction, and thus an economical design. Therefore, in recent decades,
different numerical and experimental studies have been performed to predict the
mechanical characteristics of these structural components exposed to several
loading combinations and boundary conditions. (Soltani et al, 2022)

Recently, experimental tests and numerical simulations have also been dedicated
to study the ultimate resistance of mono-symmetric I-section beams made with
high strength steels, evaluating the influence of initial geometric imperfections and
residual stresses, in order to improve the current design rules. (Trayana et al, 2021)

The design of steel beams must consider lateral torsional buckling due to their
small section walls and susceptibility to stability loss. Bisymmetric I-sections are
favored for their stiffness in warping torsion, enhancing resistance to lateral
torsional buckling. However, traditional theoretical models oversimplify support
conditions, leading to inaccurate critical moment estimations. Recent studies
emphasize the significance of elastic fixing at support nodes for more precise
calculations. Analytical formulas integrating elastic restraint against warping and
rotation offer a promising solution for structural reliability assessment,
complementing finite element method (FEM) simulations. This study addresses
lateral torsional buckling in single-span beams with bisymmetric I-sections,
considering both warping and lateral rotation restraint at support nodes, providing
essential insights for more accurate structural design. (Piotrowski et al, 2019)

The use of advanced nonlinear analysis techniques has become increasingly


prevalent to meet the demand for economically efficient structures with varied
shapes. This trend is accompanied by a rise in advanced finite element simulations
for strength calculations, particularly in the context of corrugated web girders,
which are gaining traction in structural engineering practice. While previous
research extensively investigated local stability phenomena, such as bending
moment, shear buckling, and transverse force strengths, recent studies have
expanded their focus to include global member stability, particularly the lateral-
torsional buckling (LTB) strength of corrugated web girders. (Jáger et al, 2021)

The utilization of castellated steel beams, particularly in the form of castellated


rectangular hollow section (CRHS) beams, has become widespread in heavily
loaded industrial structures due to their strength and material-saving
characteristics, thereby contributing to a reduction in the environmental footprint
of the steel industry. Unlike uniform members, CRHS beams offer economic
advantages stemming from enhanced bending and torsional rigidities, facilitated by
their perforated web and distinctive architectural appeal. While castellated beams
with I-shaped sections are efficiently designed to meet required bending rigidity,
they often exhibit reduced susceptibility to lateral torsional buckling, primarily
attributed to web distortional modes. (Saoula et al 2021)
