Title: Large deflection of elastoplastic, non-linear strain-hardening cantilevers
Author(s): Huang, X.; Wang, B.; Lu, G.; Yu, T. X.
Abstract: This paper concerns the large deflection of elastoplastic, non-linear strain-hardening cantilevers of rectangular cross-section, for which the stress-strain relationship after yielding is described by - K1q. Both the bending moment and axial force are included in the yielding criterion, and the corresponding strain increments obey the associated normality rule. Comparisons between the experimental data and the theoretical predictions are made for mild steel cantilevers subjected to a tip force with an inclined angle - 67.5, 90 and 157° respectively. R easonable agreement is obtained. The theoretical analysis has described the large deflection behaviour of the cantilever and is in good agreement with tests.
