Abstract Machine learning (ML) continues to rise as an effective and affordable method of
tackling engineering problems. Unlike other disciplines, the integration of ML into structural …

Cold-formed steel (CFS) purlins and studs with staggered web perforations have been used
in construction to improve the thermal efficiency of buildings. The perforations adversely …

Cold-formed steel channels are made with staggered courses of slots for reduced thermal
conductivity and improved energy efficiency of cold-formed steel buildings. The reduced …

The supercomputers of South Ural State University are at the core of the University's
research performance. These facilities enable researchers to perform a broad range of …

This paper presents; mapping functions, a machine learning (ML) and simulation-free
approach to enable physics-guided and data-driven derivation of expressions that describe …

Thermal bridging through cold-formed steel (CFS) channels can be substantially reduced by
introducing staggered slots in the channels' webs. The perforation size and pattern …

Staggered rectangular perforations (slots) are provided in the webs of cold-formed steel
(CFS) beams and columns to reduce their thermal conductivity and improve the energy …

The application of staggered slotted perforations in cold-formed steel (CFS) members is
increasingly prominent in modern construction. Understanding the web-crippling strength of …

In the practical application of cold-formed steel members, a certain number and forms of
holes are often placed in the web of members. The web opening will weaken the shear …

In this paper elastic major-axis flexural buckling of thin-walled lipped channel column
members with slotted webs is discussed. Though slotted webs are applied in order to …
