Thin-walled structures subjected to internal or external pressure usually need to be reinforced with ribs. The design of ribs is generally based on experiences in engineering, and the results are often very conservative. In this paper, an approach for th...

The presented method allows applying the limit analysis of structures and reformulates the method in terms of displacements and permanent strain. In this perspective, it results that the method is stated directly considering the strain rather than the st...
