Interaction of shock waves with elastic-plastic medium

Interaction of Gravitational Waves with an Elastic Solid Medium

Interaction of Shock Waves with Magnetic Fields

In continuation of the work on interaction between shock waves and magnetic fields 2 the experiments reported here measured the atomic and electron densities in the interaction region by means of an interferometric and a spectroscopic method. The transient atomic density was also calculated using a one-dimensional theory based on the work of JOHNSON 3, but modified to give an improved physical ...

Elastic and plastic deformations of charge density waves

2014 An elastic theory of CDW deformations under electric fields is presented, on the basis of a simple phase Hamiltonian. The emphasis is put on the internal rigidity of the modulation which indeed resembles an « electronic solid », and on the anisotropy of its elastic constants. CDW’s continous deformations are described by a strain tensor given by the relative variations of the wavevector of...

Elastic-Plastic Analysis of Bending Moment – Axial Force Interaction in Metallic Beam of T-Section

This study derives kinematic admissible bending moment – axial force (M-P) interaction relations for mild steel by considering elastic-plastic idealizations. The interaction relations can predict strains, which is not possible in a rigid perfectly plastic idealization. The relations are obtained for all possible cases pertaining to the locations of neutral axis. One commercial rolled steel T-se...

Interaction of hydro-elastic waves with a vertical wall

This study aims to gain knowledge on how hydroelastic waves interact with off-shore structures, for example off-shore wind turbines or oil rigs. The linear two-dimensional problem of hydroelastic waves reflected by a vertical wall is analysed. Water is of finite depth and is covered by ice. The fluid is assumed incompressible and inviscid. The ice sheet is assumed thin compared with both the wa...
