Generalised Beam Theory

A 2nd order inelastic Generalised Beam Theory (GBT) formulation based on the J2 flow theory is proposed, being a promising alternative to the shell finite element method. Its application is illustrated for an I-section beam and a lipped-C column. GBT results were validated against ABAQUS, namely concerning equilibrium paths, deformed configurations, and displacement profiles. It was concluded that the GBT modal nature allows (i) precise results with only 22% of the number of dof required in ABAQUS, as well as (ii) the understanding (by means of modal participation diagrams) of the behavioral mechanics in any elastoplastic stage of member deformation .

The inelastic behavior of solid circular bars twisted to arbitrarily large strains is considered. Various phenomenological constitutive laws currently employed to model finite strain inelastic behavior are shown to lead to closed-form analytical solutions for torsion. These include rate-independent elastic-plastic isotropic hardening J2 flow theory of plasticity, various kinematic hardening models of flow theory, and both hypoelastic and hyperelastic formulations of J2 deformation theory. Certain rate-dependent inelastic laws, including creep and strain-rate sensitivity models, also permit the development of closed-form solutions. The derivation of these solutions is presented as well as numerous applications to a wide variety of time-independent and rate-dependent plastic constitutive laws.
