Abstract
A numerical method for the analysis of the isothermal elastic-plastic expansion, by internal pressure, of cylindrical tubes with various end conditions is presented. The Tresca yield condition and associated plastic flow rule are assumed and both non-hardening and work-hardening tubes are considered with account being taken of finite plastic deformation. Tubes which undergo further plastic deformation on unloading are also considered. Expansion of a cylindrical cavity from zero radius in an infinite medium is considered as a limiting case.
