Numerical Examples to Compare Zarka’s Method with Evolutive Analyses
- Life assessment of a structure subject to cyclic loading rests on quantifying strain accumulated prior to shakedown and the strain range experienced after plastic shakedown has been achieved. Few methods exist to predict these quantities. Zarka's method is one of these methods. It is evaluated by analyzing several examples of structures and comparing the quality of the results obtained and the numerical effort required with evolutive analyses by using a commercial Finite Element program.
