Abstract:
A computational model given helps to find displacements of a structure, made of a perfect plastic material, using loads applied to this structure. On the other hand it can find loads applied to the structure using displacements given. The model includes geometrical, statical and physical relations and it is based on the finite element method where finite elements represent triangular simplexes.
Keywords:geometrical nonlinearity, perfect plastic material, pure bending, deformation.
