The unloading problem for severely twisted bars

Tsuan Wu Ting

Vol. 64 (1976), No. 2, 559–582
Abstract

Suppose that a cylindrical bar is twisted by terminal couples beyond its elastic range. What will happen if the applied load is (gradually) removed? This question will be formulated, according to the deformation theory of plasticity, as a problem of variational inequalities over a convex set in a Hilbert space and the existence, uniqueness and the regularity of the solution will be established. In addition, physically relevant results will be derived.
