A method for selecting admissible velocity fields is presented for incompressible material. As illustrations, extrusion processes through three basic types of curved dies have been treated: cosine, elliptic, and hyperbolic. Upper-bound theorem is used in obtaining mean extrusion pressures and also in choosing the most suitable deformation pattern for extrusion through square dies. Effects of die geometry, friction, and material properties are discussed.

Based on the upper-bound theorem in limit analysis, the central bursting defect in plane strain drawing and extrusion is analyzed by comparing the proportional flow with the central bursting flow for the metal with voids at the center. A criterion for the unique conditions that promote this defect has been derived. The metal with voids may flow in the identical manner to that of solid strip with no voids to form a sound flow, deterring central bursting. A solid strip, on the other hand, or a material with voids, may flow in a manner so as to produce central bursting defects. A major conclusion of the study is that, for a range of combinations of inclined angle of the die, reduction, and friction, central bursting is expected whether or not the material originally had any voids. On the other hand, central bursting can be prevented even if the original rod contains small-size voids.

The forging processes have usually been studied by analytical methods under simplifying assumptions such as the consideration of plane strain. Present work this study is approached from Upper Bound Theorem using the Triangular Rigid Zones model from a new approach, that is, through the analysis of Ring Compression Test, axisymmetric element under its canonical geometry ensures a similar aforementioned plane strain behavior. A new perspective of calculating the so-called neutral plane (defined by the radius at which the material flows in opposite directions), which is the basis element in solving the problem is proposed.

It has been established, in previous studies, the best adaptation and solution for the implementation of the modular model, being the current choice based on the minimization of the p/2k dimensionless relation obtained for each one of the model, analyzed under the same boundary conditions and efforts. Among the different cases covered, this paper shows the study for the optimal choice of the geometric distribution of zones. The Upper Bound Theorem (UBT) by its Triangular Rigid Zones (TRZ) consideration, under modular distribution, is applied to indentation processes. To extend the application of the model, cases of different thicknesses are considered

Based on the upper bound theorem of limit analysis, this paper presents a procedure for assessment of the influence of the soil anisotropy and nonhomogeneity on the stability of fissured slopes subjected to seismic action. By means of a mathematical optimization procedure written in Matlab software codes, the stability factors NS and λcφ are derived with respect to the best upper bound solutions. A series of stability charts are obtained in this paper, and then the critical locations of cracks are determined for cracks of known depth. The results demonstrate a significant influence of the soil anisotropy and nonhomogeneity on the stability of the fissured slopes and the location distribution of the cracks. In addition, the procedures for getting the factor of safety are put forward. It is shown that a decrease in the nonhomogeneity coefficient n0 and an increase in the anisotropy coefficient k could lead to the fissured slopes becoming unsafe. Finally, this article also illustrates the variation in the safety factor of fissured slopes under the impact of three factors (Kh, H1/H, and λ).

A three-dimensional (3D) numerical implementation of the limit analysis upper-bound theorem is used to determine passive horizontal earth-pressure coefficients. An extension technique allowing determination of the 3D passive earth pressures for any width-to-height ratios greater than 7 is presented. The horizontal passive earth-pressure coefficients are presented and compared with solutions published previously. Results of the ratio between the 3D and two-dimensional horizontal passive earth-pressure coefficients are shown and found to be almost independent of the soil-to-wall friction ratio. A simple equation is proposed for calculating this passive earth-pressure ratio.
