“…how can mathematics, which is so clear and precise, and in so many ways simple, be applied to the physical world which, although apparently consistent, is many sided and extremely complex? ….”
Calladine, 1969

The Plasticity Approach with Some Words of Caution
![Page 15: 1st McClelland Lecture - By Don Murff](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022020207/552e12f75503466f768b4896/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The Upper Bound Method of Plastic Limit Analysis
• Define an admissible mechanism
• Assume a virtual velocity of the unknown loads
• Set external work rates equal to internal energy dissipation rates
• Solve the resulting equation
• Optimize the mechanism

A Word of Encouragement
Remember ‐‐‐ no one ever really understands anything, we just get used to it.

Step By Step Procedure for Macro PLAPlanar Model (V&H) of System
1. Virtual rotation about Xo , Yo2. Find footing velocities v & h3. Use normality to form ratios of
velocities e.g v/h4. Equate these to ratios from
mechanism => 2 equations5. Interaction surface => 3rd equation6. Solve for V & H7. Dissipation rate= Vv+Hh8. Set dissipation= external work rate9. Solve for unknown Force10. Optimize e.g. wrt Xo , Yo
