Frame analysis for non-linear behavior can be made either by simulating a load control or deformation control test setup. In the latter approach, a set of deformations is increased to […]
EK517
Because the deformations of soils are mostly due to changes in the particle assembly, by sliding and rolling of particles, it can be expected that after unloading a soil will […]

Deformations of soils are a function of effective stresses, not total stresses.
EK431
The response of the beam remains linear and elastic almost to the stage when the stress in the extreme fibre has reached the value of the yield stress. From there […]
EK428
One of the prerequisites of plastic frame analysis is that the structure will not fail by rupture (brittle failure) but by deformations, which may progressively grow without any increase in […]
EK94
There are two main assumptions for first order plastic analysis: The structure is made of ductile material that can undergo large deformations beyond the elastic limit without fracture or buckling. […]
EK93
Assumptions of the Bernoulli-Euler theory of bending: The beam is bent by pure terminal couples so that shear and axial forces are not present. The deformations are small, so that […]
EK41
The loads resisted by the bolts of a group are never equal (in the elastic range) when there are more than two bolts in a line. If the plates be […]
EK20
Most structures are elastic bodies and the deformations under load are considered to be small so that changes in geometry are generally ignored. For this reason, when considering equilibrium the […]

When dealing with mechanics of rigid body, ignore deformations in the body and concern with only the net external effects of external forces.
