Abstract

The purpose of this article is to explore in details the theoretical and numerical aspects of the behavior of spatial trusses, undergoing large elastic and/or elastoplastic strains. Two nonlocal formulations are proposed in order to regularize the problem, avoiding the mesh dependence of the numerical response. The classical example of a simple bar in tension is chosen to explore the various features of the proposed models and to highlight the interplay between material and geometrical nonlinearity in the localization.
