Extension of the static shakedown theorems to softening materials

摘要

A generalization of the static shakedown theorems for elastic plastic hardening solids with isotropic [Mech. Res. Commun. 29 (2002) 159] and anisotropic [Acta Mechanica, 2004] damage accounting for the possibility of material softening is proposed. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
