✦ Synopsis

A semi-automatic method is presented for the rigid-plastic yield-line analysis of slabs to predict the mechanisms which are most likely to cause collapse. The computational technique adopted uses linear programming to evaluate the Munro and Da Fonseca solution for any given trial element geometry and non-linear optimisation techniques to investigate the eect of adjusting the geometry. Linearized constraint equations are developed analytically and used with the conjugate gradient method in order to overcome problems due to the existence of discontinuities in slope of the optimising function. Computation procedures are given and an algorithm for this is described with examples.

For the finite element analysis of metal forming processes, a method based on the equilibrium of nodal forces is proposed by assuming the deforming metal to be a slightly compressible rigid-plastic material. As an extension of the method, a formulation for finite deformation is derived on the basis
