Inelastic Analysis of Structures

Inelastic Analysis of Structures By Milan Jirasek, Zdenek P. Bazant, Jirasek
2001 | 760 Pages | ISBN: 0471987166 | scanned PDF | 53 MB


The modeling of mechanical properties of materials and structuresis a complex and wide–ranging subject. In some applications, it issufficient to assume that the material remains elastic, i.e. thatthe deformation process is fully reversible and the stress is aunique function of strain. However, such a simplified assumption isappropriate only within a limited range, and in general must bereplaced by a more realistic approach that takes into account theinelastic processes such as plastic yielding or cracking. This book presents a comprehensive treatment of the most importantareas of plasticity and of time–dependent inelastic behavior(viscoplasticity of metals, and creep and shrinkage of concrete).It covers structural aspects such as: ∗ incremental analysis ∗ limit analysis ∗ shakedown analysis ∗ optimal design ∗ beam structures subjected to bending and torsion ∗ yield line theory of plates ∗ slip line theory ∗ size effect in structures ∗ creep and shrinkage effects in concrete structures. The following aspects of the advanced material modeling arepresented: ∗ yield surfaces for metals and plastic–frictional materials ∗ hardening and softening ∗ stress–return algorithms ∗ large–strain formulations ∗ thermodynamic framework ∗ microplane models ∗ localization of plastic strain. Inelastic Analysis of Structures is a textbook for basic andadvanced courses on plasticity, with a slight emphasis onstructural engineering applications, but with a wealth of materialfor geotechnical, mechanical, aerospace, naval, petroleum andnuclear engineers. The text is constructed in a very didacticalway, while the mathematics has been kept rigorous.
