Sommario

Si studia il problema della soluzione incrementale dei continui elasto-plastici in regime di grandi spostamenti e piccole deformazioni.

Si assume l'ipotesi di meccanismi multipli interagenti con leggi di flusso associate.

Viene definita una condizione sufficiente di unicità della soluzione incrementale e vengono forniti alcuni principi di minimo atti alla definizione numerica della detta soluzione.

Il lavoro viene concluso da alcune considerazioni in merito al problema della stabilità.

Summary

This paper studies the problem of incremental solution of elastoplastic continua in the case of large displacements and small strains.

Multiple interacting mechanisms under associated flow laws are assumed.

A sufficient condition of uniqueness of incremental solution is determined and some minimum principles are furnished for the numerical definition of said solution.

The problem of stability is discussed.
