Received 15.01.2014, received in revised form 10.02.2014, accepted 20.02.2014 Special type of conservation laws for the equations which describe the bending of a beam is proposed in this paper. These laws are used to determine the elastic-plastic boundary.
Keywords: symmetries, conservation laws, cross-section, boundary conditions, piecewise-smooth contours, elasto-plastic boundary.
It is generally agreed today that problems of solid mechanics with unknown boundaries are very complicated. The problem with unknown boundary between the elastic and plastic regions is an example of such problem. As a rule, problems with unknown boundaries are solved by the semi-inverse methods. The other technique is to reduce an unknown boundary to a circle by Legendre transformation. This approach has been developed by B.D.Annin [1]. Unfortunately this technique allows one to prove only an existence theorem but it does not provide an algorithm for constructing solutions.
The authors of the paper successfully use symmetries and conservation laws for solving various problems of solid mechanics. It is well known that the symmetries admitted by the differential equations help to find a wide class of exact solutions and they are very effective semi-inverse methods. The conservation laws allow one to solve not only the systems of hyperbolic equations but also the systems of elliptic equations [2,3].
Special type of conservation laws for the equations which describe the bending of a beam are proposed in this paper. These laws are used to obtain a method for determining the elastic-plastic boundary. The method is suitable not only for beams with smooth cross-section contours but also for beams with piecewise - smooth cross-section contours.
Let us consider bending of a beam with a constant cross section contour r. The beam is under the influence of force P. The force is imposed to one of the beam ends and it is parallel to one of the principal axes of the cross section (Fig. 1).
Let us take the origin of the coordinates at the center of gravity of the beam fixed end. The Oz-axis coincides with the center line of beam. The Ox and Oy-axes coincide with the principal axes of the cross section.

where A is the Laplace operator and v is the Poisson's ratio. The system is solved with the use of the semi-inverse Saint-Venant method.
Let us write system (1) in terms of the displacement vector (u,v,w). Taking into account appropriate boundary conditions, we will solve the system with the use of special conservation laws. They will be introduced later.
In order to find the components of the displacement vector we have the following system of equations

where the constants Aj and Bj can be easily determined in terms of the constants A, M,p and l. Then we have the following formulas

A2 = a(A2 - A(A + 2m)) = -a ■ 2m,

Boundary conditions. We assume that the lateral surface of the beam is stress-free. It means that
Txz«2 - Tyzni = 0, (4)
where (n1,n2) are the components of the external normal to the contour r. We also assume that the plastic flow occurs on the lateral surface of the beam under the action of the force P and the von Mises yield criterion
Txz + Tyz = k , (5)
is satisfied, where k is the yield stress. Solving system (4) and (5) we obtain
Txz = ±«ik, Tyz = ±«2k
or
Ai x2

Let us choose the upper sign and we obtain the following problem. It is necessary to solve the equation
Uxx + Uyy = ax (6)
with the following boundary conditions on r:
(mk - ^f) _ (n2h - A2xy)
Uy = --
(7)
Remark. There are elastic and plastic regions in the beam. Points where inequality t^z +Ty2z < 1 is satisfied belong to the elastic zone. Other points, including points on the contour r, belong to the plastic one.
Conservation laws. The relation of the form
dxA + dy B = 0 (8)
will be called a conservation law for equation (6). Assume that (8) is valid by means of equation (6). Let conserved current has the form
A = a(x, y)ux + f(x, y)uy + y(x, y),
B = a1(x,y)ux + f1(x,y)uy + Y1(x,y).
From (6) and (8) we obtain
a(a - Uyy) + axUx + fuxy + fxUy + Yx + +a1Uxy + a1 Ux + f1Uyy + f^Uy + Yy =0. (9) Since relation (9) is valid for all solutions of equation (6) from (9) we have
a - f1 =0 f + a1 =0 ax + ay = 0, fx + f^ = 0, aa + Yx + y1 = 0.
or
ax - fy = 0, fx + ay = 0, aa + Yx + y\ = 0. (10)
Then the conserved current has the form
A = aux + fuy + y, B = -fux + auy + y 1■

Thus we arrive to the following theorem. Theorem. Equations (6) admit an infinite set of conservation laws.
Using Green's formula, conservation law (8) can be written in the form (Fig. 2)
0 = J - (awj + Pwy + y) dy + (-^Wx + awy + 71) dx.
Let us consider two solutions of equation (10). The first solution is

y 2 V y - yo J
From the conservation law given above we have
J (awx + Pwy + 7) dy - (-^Wx + awy + y1) dx
J (awx + Pwy + y) dy - (-Pwx + aWy + y1) dx.
(x-xo)2 + (y-yo)2 = R2
Let us compute the second integral of the first and second solutions. For the first solution of (10) we have
J (awx + Pwy + y) dy - (-Pwx + awy + y1) dx
(x-xo)2 + (y-yo)2 = R2

This formula is obtained with the use of the mean value theorem and in the limit of R ^ 0. Finally, we obtain
Formulas (11) and (12) allow us to find the stress state at the point (x0,y0). It means that it is possible to determine the point of cross-section in which the material is in plastic or elastic state. Hence the position of boundary between elastic and plastic regions can be accurately calculated. Preliminary test calculations confirm this conclusion.
