A computer adaptation of Southwell’s Relaxation Method was developed for the solution of elastic-perfectly plastic stress distribution problems. This method was employed to study some aspects of the problem of the plane-strain indenter. For two ratios of strip thickness to indenter width, the load for, and location of, initial yielding and the load for the onset of indentation were found. The results are compared with slip-line solutions.

The elastic-perfectly plastic solution of Galin provides only the stress distribution for the plastic region. The theory is extended and the compatibility equation is solved for the secant modulus. The unfinished problem of Galin is thus completed and the strain distribution is obtained for the perfectly plastic region around a circular hole due to unequal biaxial loads.

In this work, closed-form analytical solutions for the plasticity zone shape at the lip of a semi-infinite crack are developed. The material is assumed isotropic with a linear elastic-perfectly plastic constitution. The solutions have been developed for the cases of plane stress and plane strain. The three crack modes, mode I, II and III have been considered. Finally, prediction of the plasticity zone extent has been performed for both the Von Mises and Tresca yield criterion. Significant differences have been found between the plane stress and plane strain conditions, as well as between the three crack modes’ solutions. Also, significant differences have been found when compared to classical plasticity zone calculations using the Irwin approach.

Abstract This paper is concerned with a compressible elastic-plastic wedge of an included angle β < π/2 in the state of plane strain. The solution, deduced for an isotropic nonwork-hardening material, employs Tresca’s yield criterion and the associated flow rules. By means of a numerical example the solution is compared with that of an incompressible elastic-plastic wedge in one case (β = π/4) for various positions of the elastic-plastic boundary.

Abstract An elastic, perfectly plastic wedge of an incompressible isotropic material in the state of plane strain is considered, where the stress-strain relations of Prandtl-Reuss are employed in the plastic domain. For a wedge (with an included angle β) subjected to a uniform normal pressure on one boundary, the complete solution is obtained which is valid in the range 0 < β < π/2; this latter limitation is due to the character of the initial yield which depends on the magnitude of β. Numerical results for stresses and displacements are given in one case (β = π/4) for various positions of the elastic-plastic boundary.

Abstract The paper presents a graphical method of determining the fully plastic stress distribution in a twisted circular ring sector with hollow cross section and the warping of the cross sections of this ring in the ensuing plastic flow. The ring is assumed to consist of a rigid, perfectly plastic material.

The analysis of elastic, perfectly plastic compressible materials under the assumption of plane strain is a statically indeterminate problem. In the present paper, by introducing a perturbation parameter ε = 1/2−ν, the problem can be changed into a series of statically determinate ones. The first-order approximation yields the solution for the incompressible material. In order to show the details of this method, the second-order approximation for the problem of the thick-walled cylinder under internal pressure is obtained.
