Elastoplastic analysis of frames composed of softening materials by restricted basis linear programming
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper is concerned with nonlinear analysis of frames composed of softening materials. The previously proposed dissipated energy maximization approach is extended to determine non-holonomic solution of such frames. The adopted assumptions are: linear kinematics, lumped plasticity with softening behavior, piecewise-linear yield functions, associate flow rule and isotropic evolution with a three phase linear softening rule. The approach is based on a mathematical programming formulation. The solution procedure is discussed and presented in a comprehensive flowchart. It is shown that this method has the ability of solving and tracing path dependent problems and detecting any possible bifurcation. 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

متن کاملViscous Approximation of Quasistatic Evolutions for a Coupled Elastoplastic-damage Model
Employing the technique of vanishing viscosity and time rescaling, we show the existence of quasistatic evolutions for elastoplastic materials with incomplete damage affecting both the elastic tensor and the plastic yield surface, in a softening framework and in small strain assumptions.
متن کاملA Global Extremum Principle for the Analysis of Solids Composed of Softening Material
An extremum principle is presented covering problems in solid mechanics equilibrium analysis for piecewise linear softening materials. Problems formulated according to this principle are expressed in a mixed “stress and deformation” form. The mechanics interpretation is limited according to linear deformation kinematics. More specialized models, such as an exfremumprinciple in mixed form for li...
