Novel numerical procedures for limit analysis of structures : mesh-free methods and mathematical programming

Current research in the field of limit analysis is focussing on the development of numerical tools which are sufficiently efficient and robust to be used in engineering practice. This places demands on the numerical discretisation strategy adopted as well as on the mathematical programming tools app...
