result stating that an elastic-plastic structure under repeated variable loads settles into purely elastic response if some self-equilibrating residual stress field keeps it within yield.

In structural engineering, shakedown theorem refers to result stating that an elastic-plastic structure under repeated variable loads settles into purely elastic response if some self-equilibrating residual stress field keeps it within yield. This meaning comes from Melan (1938) in Ingenieur-Archiv.[1]
