MILD STEEL BEAMS UNDER CYCLIC ALTERNATING DEFLECTIONS

AN ANALYTICAL TECHNIQUE, BASED UPON SOME SIMPLE EXPERIMENTS, IS DEVELOPED FOR PREDICTING THE BEHAVIOR OF MILD STEEL, SIMPLE AND INDETERMINATE, STRUCTURES SUBJECT TO REVERSED BENDING OF THE TYPE IN WHICH A STRAIN (OR DEFLECTION) RANGE IS PRESCRIBED. THE METHOD CONSTRUCTS MOMENT-CURVATURE RELATIONS WHICH ARE FUNCTIONS OF THE CYCLIC HISTORY OF THE STRUCTURE AND USES THESE CURVES TO DETERMINE THE VARIATION IN LOAD WITH CYCLIC STRAINING. /TRRL/
