Structural Plasticity : Limit, Shakedown and Dynamic Plastic Analyses of Structures

Bok av Guowei Ma
Limit and shakedown analysis for structures can provide a very useful tool for design and analysis of engineering structures. "e;Structural Plasticity - Limit, Shakedown and Dynamic Plastic Analyses of Structure"e; provides more general solutions of limit and shakedown analysis for structures by using a unified strength theory. A series of solutions of plates from circular, annular plates to rhombus plates and square plates, rotating discs and cylinders, pressure vessels are presented. These results encompass the Tresca-Mohr-Coulomb solution of structure as special cases. The unified solution, which cannot be obtained by using a single criterion, is suitable to more materials and structures.Maohong Yu is professor of Department of Civil Engineering at Xi'an Jiaotong University, China. He has authored 12 books including "e;Unified Strength Theory and Its Applications"e; and "e;Generalized Plasticity"e;.
