Upper Bound Limit Load Solutions for Welded Joints with Cracks
The present short monograph concerns analytic and semi-analytic techniques for finding an approximate value of the limit load. The limit load is an essential input parameter of flaw assessment procedures. In most cases, finding the limit load involves som

Preface
This monograph concerns with application of the upper bound theorem to finding the limit load for welded structures including structures with cracks. The presentation of the introductory material and the theoretical developments appear in a text of six chapters. The topics chosen are primarily of interest to engineers as postgraduates and practitioners but they should also serve to capture a readership from among applied mathematicians. The monograph provides both a collection of limit load solutions for welded structures and a description of general approaches to finding the limit load for a class of structures. Many solutions are represented by formulae. Such solutions are imme
