Pre-determination of prediction of yield-line pattern of slabs using Voronoi diagrams
The article presents a new method of predicting the yield-lines of statically loaded slabs, based on roof geometry (straight skeletons) and Voronoi diagrams for a polygon. A surprising analogy was found between the layout of the plate’s yield-lines and the edge lines of the embankments created as a...
