| Abstract | ||
| This paper presents a comparative study between experimental results available in literature and a numerical analysis carried out by the authors dealing with the behavior of tapered steel frames. The effects of nonlinear stress-strain relationship, initial imperfections, and end-restraints (boundary conditions) are taken into consideration. ABAQUS is used for a nonlinear finite element model study. An experimental from literature test was used to verify the results obtained from ABAQUS. | ||
