Abstract

This paper aims at introducing a new method to determine the buckling coefficient kb of the stiffened plate girders under pure bending using deep learning, one of the most powerful algorithms in machine learning. Firstly, output data kb is generated from eigenvalue buckling analyses based on input data (various geometric dimensions of the girder). This procedure is implemented by using the Abaqus2Matlab toolbox, which allows the transfer of data between Matlab and Abaqus and vice versa. After that, 2,200 training data are used to build the model for predicting kb using deep learning. Finally, 200 test data are used to evaluate the accuracy of the model. The results obtained from this model are also compared with analogous results of previous works with a good agreement.
