... in simulating the heating process. Transversal inherent strain is linearized from the computed distortion of the flat plate and applied in the elastic analysis, using higher order Gauss-Legendre (4-nodes shell elements). The accuracy of the proposed method is demonstrated by comparing the angular distortion...

... by elastic analysis using the inherent deformation theory even with complex heating sequences. INTRODUCTION Line heating is an effective method to form curved shell plates with complex three-dimensional geometry. However, line heating process is mostly dependent on the skill of hard-to-find experienced...

... with an elastic analysis, the effects of material plasticity are discussed. In the case of elasto-plastic analysis, it is observed that the impulse decreases, displacements increase and contact time duration is longer than the elastic case. And the time variation of the impacting load is not significant due...

...]. The following three methods have been developed: (1) Thermal elasto-plastic analysis, (2) Experimental method for measurement of three dimensional residual stress using inherent strain (the source of residual stress) as .par~eter, and (3) Prediction method by elastic analysis usmg mherent strain which is stored...
