Abstract:

We study some properties of solutions to a quasistatic evolution problem for perfectly plastic plates, that has been recently derived from three-dimensional Prandtl-Reuss plasticity. We prove that the stress tensor has locally square-integrable first derivatives with respect to the space variables. We also exhibit an example showing that the model under consideration has in general a genuinely three-dimensional nature and cannot be reduced to a two-dimensional setting.

Keywords: quasistatic evolution, rate-independent processes, Prandtl-Reuss plasticity, perfect plasticity, thin plates
