Summary--Ageneral method for analysis of elasto--plastic beams and frames with large displacements
is described in this paper. A hybrid-type beam element with 3d[ at each end is used in the analysis. The
element stiffness matrix is obtained by inversion of a flexibility matrix, which is computed from an
assumed distribution of internal forces along the element axis. This approach with approximations of
the stress fields better imitates varying stiffness along the beam than the traditional approach with
assumed displacement fields.
Large displacement effects are taken into account by updating the geometry (both node co-ordinates
and cross-section shapes) and accurately computing the elongations of each element. Partial yielding is
considered across the height of the beam as well as along the element axis.
