On Kelvin-Voigt model and its generalizations

An Exact Solution for Kelvin-Voigt Model Classic Coupled Thermo Viscoelasticity in Spherical Coordinates

In this paper, the classic Kelvin-Voigt model coupled thermo-viscoelasticity model of hollow and solid spheres under radial symmetric loading condition is considered. A full analytical method is used and an exact unique solution of the classic coupled equations is presented. The thermal and mechanical boundary conditions, the body force, and the heat source are considered in the most general fo...

Stability of an abstract-wave equation with delay and a Kelvin-Voigt damping

On Jirousek Method and Its Generalizations

Professor Jirousek has been a very important driving force in the modern development of Trefftz method, contributing to its application in many different fields such as elasticity, shells and plates theory, Poisson equation and transient heat analysis. This article is dedicated to him. The focus of the paper is to incorporate Jirousek method into a very general framework of Trefftz method which...

Transmission Problems in (Thermo)Viscoelasticity with Kelvin-Voigt Damping: Nonexponential, Strong, and Polynomial Stability

We investigate transmission problems between a (thermo-)viscoelastic system with Kelvin-Voigt damping, and a purely elastic system. It is shown that neither the elastic damping by Kelvin-Voigt mechanisms nor the dissipative effect of the temperature in one material can assure the exponential stability of the total system when it is coupled through transmission to a purely elastic system. The ap...

Hyperuniformity and its generalizations.

Disordered many-particle hyperuniform systems are exotic amorphous states of matter that lie between crystal and liquid: They are like perfect crystals in the way they suppress large-scale density fluctuations and yet are like liquids or glasses in that they are statistically isotropic with no Bragg peaks. These exotic states of matter play a vital role in a number of problems across the physic...
