An analysis of three-dimensional elasto-plastic sinusoidal contact

Researchers have developedmanymodels to simulate the elasto-plastic contact of spheres. However, there does not appear to exist a closed-form analytical model for elasto-plastic three-dimensional sinusoidal contact. This work uses a finite element model (FEM) to characterize elasto-plastic sinusoidal contact. Although at initial contact the sphere and sinusoidal case are very similar and can bo...

An elasto-visco-plastic model of cell aggregates.

Concentrated cell suspensions exhibit different mechanical behavior depending on the mechanical stress or deformation they undergo. They have a mixed rheological nature: cells behave elastically or viscoelastically, they can adhere to each other whereas the carrying fluid is usually Newtonian. We report here on a new elasto-visco-plastic model which is able to describe the mechanical properties...

Elasto-Plastic EFGM Analysis of an Edge Crack

In this paper, elasto-plastic analysis of an edge crack has been performed using element free Galerkin method. A model problem has been solved in plane stress condition under mode-I loading. A system of nonlinear equations has been obtained by using incremental theory of plasticity, and the equations are solved by assuming piecewise linear approximation. A code has been written in Matlab for el...

Elasto-plastic Modelling of Unsaturated Soils : an Overview

This paper presents an overview of elasto-plastic modelling of unsaturated soils. Alternative stress and strain variables that have been used in constitutive models for unsaturated soils are discussed. The use of an effective stress equation may simplify constitutive relations, but often result in a stress space that depends on the material state. In this case, the constitutive behaviour is emb...
