Abstract: Abstract Problems from plastic limit load or shakedown analysis and optimal plastic design are based on the convex yield criterion and the linear equilibrium equation for the generic stress (state) vector σ. The state or performance function s*(y, x) is defined by the minimum value function of a convex or linear program based on the basic safety conditions of plasticity theory: A safe (stress) state exists then if and only if s*
