Abstract
A simplified theory of yield hinge surfaces usually applied in plastic collapse analysis of thin plates in transverse loading is modified and used to simulate modes of plastic collapse of rectangular tubes in opposed transverse loading. The experimental results of maximum load observed in several cases are compared with the theoretical estimates based on rigid-perfectly plastic material model. The agreement between the theoretical and experimental results was found to be generally satisfactory.
