According to EC0, all actions originating from the selfweight of the structure may be considered as coming from one source and there is no requirement to consider different factors on […]
EK651
According to Eurocode 2, if the second order effects is taken into account, the equilibrium and resistance should be checked in the deformed state, including effects of cracking, non-linear material […]

Theorems for plastic analysis: Lower bound theorem: if only the structure is in equilibrium, that is, the forces and moments, externally and internally, balance, and no bending moment exceeds the […]
EK112
Limit analysis involves the process of redistribution of moments which allows the designer to take design moment at support less than that obtained by elastic analysis with corresponding increase in […]

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 […]

The equilibrium of the nonlinear model is achieved when the force imbalance is zero or sufficiently small. This equilibrium is obtained by an iterative procedure that consists of steps at […]
