Nonlinear Elastic and Inelastic Analysis of Structural Members in the Presence of High Temperature and Creep.

Abstract

This research began with a mixed principle based creep analysis and was later redirected to a study of limiting performance methodology, including a formulation for the limiting performance analysis of large systems. The formulations for dynamic systems apply to problems for which such variables as maximum displacements or stresses, relative displacements, peak velocities or accelerations are of concern. Keywords: Elastic analysis; Inelastic analysis; Creep; optimal design; high temperature; configurationless design.
