Failure Mechanisms In A Tube Under Variable Loadings.

Abstract

The paper presents some definitions and computational procedures for the
automatic recognition of mechanisms in shakedown analysis. It also contains numerical
solutions for a variant of the Bree’s problem consisting of a fixed-ends tube under independent
variations of internal pressure and temperature, producing logarithmic instantaneous
profiles across the thickness, as formulated by Gokhfeld and Cherniavsky.1 In addition,
automatic recognition of mechanisms is applied in this case.
