ABSTRACTThis paper describes the theory and the fundamental relations for the development of a displacement formulation for the finite element shakedown and limit analysis of axi-symmetrical shells. The material is assumed to be elastic-perfectly plastic. The technique is developed based upon an upper bound approach using a reformulated kinematic shakedown theorem for a shell with piecewise linear yield conditions. The soluti… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
