Abstract: The problem of a low half-sine pinned arch under a quasi-statically applied half-sine load is considered. The low arch is resting on an elastic foundation. Critical loads are obtained by ...

Abstract: The thermo-elastoviscoplastic buckling behavior of plates is investigated. The analysis is based on nonlinear kinematic relations and nonlinear rate-dependent unified constitutive equations which ...

Abstract: An analytic study of planar beams and arches subjected to significant thermal cycling from ambient temperatures up to 800°C is presented. The study employs a recently unified nonlinear ...
