In some applications, it is sufficient to assume that the material remains elastic, i.e. that the deformation process is fully reversible and the stress is a unique function of strain. However, such a simplified assumption is appropriate only within a limited range, and in general must be replaced by a more realistic approach that takes into account the inelastic processes such as plastic yielding or cracking.\u003cbr\u003e This book presents a comprehensive treatment of the most important areas of plasticity and of time-dependent inelastic behavior (viscoplasticity of metals, and creep and shrinkage of concrete). It covers structural aspects such as:\u003cbr\u003e * incremental analysis\u003cbr\u003e * limit analysis\u003cbr\u003e * shakedown analysis\u003cbr\u003e * optimal design\u003cbr\u003e * beam structures subjected to bending and torsion\u003cbr\u003e * yield line theory of plates\u003cbr\u003e * slip line theory\u003cbr\u003e * size effect in structures\u003cbr\u003e * creep and shrinkage effects in concrete structures.\u003cbr\u003e The following aspects of the advanced material modeling are presented:\u003cbr\u003e * yield surfaces for metals and plastic-frictional materials\u003cbr\u003e * hardening and softening\u003cbr\u003e * stress-return algorithms\u003cbr\u003e * large-strain formulations\u003cbr\u003e * thermodynamic framework\u003cbr\u003e * microplane models\u003cbr\u003e * localization of plastic strain.\u003cbr\u003e Inelastic Analysis of Structures is a textbook for basic and advanced courses on plasticity, with a slight emphasis on structural engineering applications, but with a wealth of material for geotechnical, mechanical, aerospace, naval, petroleum and nuclear engineers. The text is constructed in a very didactical way, while the mathematics has been kept rigorous.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45203916619927,"sku":"9780471987161","price":21830.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780471987161.webp?v=1767308308","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/inelastic-analysis-of-structures-9780471987161","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
