- What can be calculated analytically for a beam subjected to plastic bending?
Hi,
I have a question regarding plastic bending of beams (assuming bilinear elastoplastic material - with or without hardening) . In literature one can find calculations of load capacity for those beams. But what else can be calculated in such case ? Stresses ? Deflection ? Where can I find appropriate formulas for some simple sections such as rectangular one?
