Plane Contact Problems for an Elastic Foundation with Two Bedding Coefficients

An Algorithm for Two Dimensional Cutting Stock Problems with Demand

In this paper, two-dimensional cutting stock problem with demand has been studied.In this problem, cutting of large rectangular sheets into specific small pieces should be carried out hence, the waste will be minimized. Solving this problem is important to decrease waste materials in any industry that requires cutting of sheets. In most previus studies, the demand of pieces has not been usually...

A Contact Problem of an Elastic Layer Compressed by Two Punches of Different Radii

The elasticity mixed boundary values problems dealing with half-space contact are generally well resolved. A large number of these solutions are obtained by using the integral transformation method and methods based the integral equations. However, the problems of finite layer thicknesses are less investigated, despite their practical interests. This study resolves a quasi-stationary problem of...

Green’s Function for Symmetric Loading of an Elastic Sphere with Application to Contact Problems

Shakedown in elastic contact problems with Coulomb friction

Elastic systems with frictional interfaces subjected to periodic loading are sometimes predicted to ‘shake down’ in the sense that frictional slip ceases after the first few loading cycles. The similarities in behaviour between such systems and monolithic bodies with elastic–plastic constitutive behaviour have prompted various authors to speculate that Melan’s theorem might apply to them – i.e....
