In this book, the author has collected existing information on the analysis of elastic-plastic structures subjected to variable repeated loads and to variable t

This book gathers the peer-reviewed papers presented at the XXIV Conference of the Italian Association of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, held in Rome, Italy

This book deals with the safety assessment of structures and structural components, possibly operating beyond the elastic limits under variable repeated thermo-

The question whether a structure or a machine component can carry the applied loads, and with which margin of safety, or whether it will become unserviceable du
