The determination of shakedown load or shakedown domain is an important task in
structural design and integrity assessment. In this paper, a novel numerical procedure based …

In the attempt to extend the life of a structure, or a component, which is subjected to cyclic
loading history it is important to provide safety margins against excessive inelastic …

The paper is devoted to the determination of shakedown limit states of porous ductile
materials under cyclically repeated loads by considering the hollow sphere model with von …

The modeling and estimation of the inelastic response of wind excited structures is attracting
growing interest with the introduction of performance-based wind engineering. While …

Abstract The Residual Stress Decomposition Method for Shakedown (RSDM-S) is a new
iterative direct method to estimate the shakedown load in a 2-dimensional (2D) loading …

This paper presents a novel direct method for the structural shakedown analysis considering
limited kinematic hardening and non-isothermal effect. The Melan's static shakedown …

composite (PRMMC) is related to the underlying microstructure is essential for developing …

In this paper, an efficient computational approach, that combines the computational
homogenization method with conic programming, is proposed to evaluate the macroscopic …

There exist two basic formulations of static shakedown theorem for bounded kinematic
hardening (KH) model in literature. Whether the two formulations are equivalent, whether the …
