Abstract With the use of Tresca’s yield function and its associated flow laws, the complete solution is obtained for an isotropic elastic, perfectly plastic wedge (with an included angle β < π/2) subjected to a uniform traction in the state of plane stress. Unlike its corresponding plane strain solution, the state of stress in a portion of the plastic domain of the wedge is at a corner of Tresca’s yield hexagon where, in general, the normal to the yield surface is not defined uniquely.

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.

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.

The problem of a thick-walled cylindrical tube subjected to internal pressure is investigated within the framework of continuum plasticity. Material behavior is modeled by a finite strain elastoplastic flow theory based on the Tresca yield function. The deformation pattern is restricted by the plane-strain condition but arbitrary hardening and elastic compressibility are accounted for. A general solution is given in terms of quadratures. The analysis also includes treatment of a second plastic phase, characterized by corner relations, that may develop at the inner boundary. It is shown that the interface between the two plastic regions moves initially outwards and then, beyond a certain strain level, it moves back inwards. Some useful and simple results are given for thin-walled tubes of hardening materials and for thick-walled elastic/perfectly plastic tubes.

This paper is concerned with the finite twisting and expansion of an annular rigid/plastic plate in the state of plane stress. The plate, bounded by two concentric circles one of which may extend to infinity, is subjected in its plane to the combined action of pressure on the inner boundary and a couple due to circumferential shear. A detailed solution which includes the effect of isotropic work hardening is obtained with the use of Tresca’s yield function and its associated flow rules and the corresponding solution with the use of Mises’ yield function and its associated flow rules is also discussed. Numerical results are given which illustrate the influence of twisting on the expansion of a hole in an infinite plate.

A complete solution to collapse is given for a three-bar symmetric truss made of an elastic/perfectly-plastic material, using linear statics and kinematics, and the solution is found to be partially nonunique in the range of contained plastic deformation. The introduction of a first-order deviation from symmetry and/or the inclusion of first-order nonlinear terms in the equilibrium equations is found to restore uniqueness. The significance of these effects is analyzed and discussed from mathematical, physical, modelling, computational, and engineering points of view.

Strain-softening analyses were performed around a circular bore in a Mohr–Coulomb rock mass subjected to a hydrostatic stress field in cross section and out-of-plane stress along the axis of the bore. Numerical procedures that simplify the strain-softening process in a step manner were employed, and on the basis of the theoretical solutions of the elastic–brittle–plastic(EBP) medium, the strain-softening results of the displacements, stresses and the plastic zones around the circular bore were obtained. The numerical solution was validated based on the fact that the strain-softening process became EBP when the softening slope was very steep and elastic-perfectly plastic(EP) when the softening slope was near zero. The results illustrated that the stresses and displacements in the rock mass surrounding the bore was affected by axial stress and that a proper consideration of out-of-plane stress is necessary. Moreover, the presented results can be used for the verification of numerical codes.
