Shakedown analysis of the truss and comparing with the fundamental theoroms of alastic-plastic analysis implemented in a home-pakege and ANSYS

Research results in shakedown analysis of space steel structures are presented in this paper. The theory of shakedown and conventional methods of analysis are discussed, and the example of a shakedown of a truss-column is provided to illustrate the concepts of the nonlinear analysis and shakedown for space trusses [1; 4].
