recommendations! Published in 2019 at "Acta Geotechnica"

DOI: 10.1007/s11440-019-00818-6

Abstract: Shakedown analysis is an attractive method for determining the capacity of geostructures to sustain repeated loads involving a large number of cycles, e.g. rolling and sliding train wheel loads. Its main advantage is that it… read more here.
