Sentence examples for plastic methods from inspiring English sources

An approach based on the elastic and plastic methods for fire resistance analysis is presented.

Plastic methods of analysis and design are suitable for materials that exhibit ductility.

However, the recently introduced purpose-specific PC (Grigorian and Grigorian 2012a, b, c), which is a more comprehensive design procedure, embraces the merits of both the elastic and plastic methods of approach.

In BS5950 BS59500. Part 1, Structural use of steelwork in building. British Standards Institution, 1990), it is recommended that in order to analyse a structure by plastic methods the section classification of its members must be "plastic".

Therefore, a new simplified deformation model is proposed comprising two folding elements with the second folding element compressed partly, and a new set of simplified analytical method is developed by using plastic methods of analysis.

For partially anchored walls, three different plastic methods are presented: (1) no contact forces between adjacent sheets occur; (2) contact forces between the sheets; and (3) contact forces between the sheets and also with stud-to-rail joints taken into account.

The plastic method is applicable to the structures constructed with an ideal elastic plastic material.

The plastic method is based on the plastic hinge concept for the calculation of critical temperature of frames at collapse.

For fully anchored walls, the elastic method is summarised (for comparison reasons) and a corresponding simple plastic method is presented.

The plastic method of structural analysis is concerned with determining the maximum loads that a structure can sustain before collapse.

Beyond this, rigid joints offer a further opportunity in steel that was to be exploited by the plastic method of design.
