A computer adaption of plastic analysis for rigid frames

Author

Gerald Duane Galloway

Abstract

"A computer program for the plastic analysis of rigid frames is presented. The program is based on the virtual work method of plastic analysis. The great number of failure mechanisms that must be considered in any virtual work analysis are given in Appendix C. The use of the program as a design aid is also discussed. A check for the virtual work program is also presented. The check is based on the method of inequalities as initially presented by Symonds and Neal"--Abstract, page ii.
