Dynamic shakedown and a reduced kinematic theorem

A dynamic shakedown theory is formulated, which preserves all the essentials of the classical quasistatic theory. The emphasis is given to the kinematic theorem. A reduced path-independent kinematic inequality, which does not involve time integrals, is deduced. An analytical example illustrates the application of both static and reduced kinematic theorems in the dynamic range. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier Science Ltd
