The key feature is the use of Fourier series to convert the piecewise functions of the cross-sectional stress distribution into a single-rule function. This eliminates the need for several capacity expressions to cover different stress stages, since the procedure permits the use of the general moment capacity expression. It also eliminates any iteration process when determining the location of the neutral axis since equilibrium of the cross-section can be satisfied explicitly. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate the validation and the applications of the formulation. © 2016, The Author(s). date: 2017 publisher: SpringerOpen official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85014342687&doi=10.1007%2fs40091-016-0147-4&partnerID=40&md5=3b8bfe9f617464a11e9946bf3a0ae343 id_number: 10.1007/s40091-016-0147-4 full_text_status: none publication: International Journal of Advanced Structural Engineering volume: 9 number: 1 pagerange: 37-49 refereed: TRUE issn: 20083556 citation: Mohd Yassin, A.Y. and Nethercot, D.A.
