Shakedown Analysis by Elastic Simulation

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Solid Mechanics and Its Applications ((SMIA,volume 83))

Abstract

Shakedown analysis of elastic plastic structures is widely credited as a valuable analytical/numerical tool for design purposes. For complex structures and loading conditions, e. g. for fast breeder nuclear reactor plants, full inelastic analysis is rarely performed, practically never within the early stages of the design advancement and the inherent decision process. The essential information therein needed can in fact be obtained, at moderate computational costs, by application of the shakedown methods and rules, at least within some limits related to the present developments of shakedown theory and its applicability to practical engineering problems, see e. g. Ponter et al. (1990), Carter et al. (1988), Ainsworth (1988), Goodall et al. (1991).
