## a b s t r a c t We propose a numerical method for the computation of shakedown loads of engineering structures subjected to varying thermo-mechanical loading. The method is based on Melan's lower bound shakedown theorem using the von Mises yield criterion. The resulting nonlinear convex optimiza
