Elastic-Viscoplastic Solids Subjected to Thermal and Loading Cycles

  • Chapter
Inelastic Behaviour of Structures under Variable Loads

Part of the book series: Solid Mechanics and Its Applications ((SMIA,volume 36))

Abstract

— A class of elastic-viscoplastic materials with dual internal variables, thermodynamic potential and temperature-dependent plastic and creep data is considered. For solids (or structures) of such materials, subjected to cyclic loads and temperature variations, the existence of a steady-state response is ascertained and its periodicity characteristics established. Particular steady-state responses, like, elastic and inelastic shakedown, are addressed. By means of a sensitivity analysis of the steady cycle with respect to the load parameter changes, a number of basic features of inelastic shakedown (the viscoplastic counterpart of plastic shakedown) are also addressed.
