Optimization methods for the distortion of thin-walled box girders and investigation of distortion effects

Abstract To investigate the distortion process of thin-walled box girders, three commonly used methods based on energy variational calculus and static balance analysis are optimized. A generalized analytical formula for box-girder distortion research is derived, and a fourth-order distortion control...
