On the plastic bifurcation and post-bifurcation of axially compressed beams
Résumé
The paper presents two new results in the domain of the elastoplastic buckling and post-buckling of beams under axial compression. (i) First, the tangent modulus critical load, the buckling mode and the initial slope of the bifurcated branch are given for a Timoshenko beam (with the transverse shear effects). The result is derived from the 3D flow plastic bifurcation theory with the von Mises yield criterion and a linear isotropic hardening. (ii) Second, use is made of a specific method in order to provide the asymptotic expansion of the post-critical branch for a Euler-Bernoulli beam, exhibiting one new non-linear fractional term. All the analytical results are validated by finite element computations.
