چکیده

Recently, Rajagopal and co-workers have shown (see Rajagopal [1], Rajagopal and Srinivasa [2],[3], Bustamante and Rajagopal[4], Rajagopal and Saccomandi [5]) that if by an elastic body one means a body that is incapable of dissipation, then the class of such bodies is far larger than either Green elastic or for that matter Cauchy elastic bodies as one could model elastic bodies using implicit constitutive relations between the Cauchy stress and the deformation gradient or implicit constitutive relations that are rate equations involving the Piola-Kirchhoff stress and the Green-St.Venant Strain (see Rajagopal and Srinivasa [2]). Such a generalized framework allows one to develop models whose linearization with regard to the smallness of the displacement gradient allows one to obtain models that have limited linearized strains even while the stresses are very large. Such a possibility has important consequences to problems which, within the context of the classical linearized theory, leads to singularities. In this short paper, we illustrate the implications of such models by considering simple problems within the context of a specific model belonging to the general class, wherein the strains remain small as the stresses tend to very large values. KeywordsCauchy stress, Piola-Kirchhoff stress, Green-St.Venant Strain, Implicit constitutive equation, Linearized strain.

Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution: An Investigation in Iran

We[1] present estimates of the Elasticity of Intertemporal Substitution (EIS) for Iranian households using synthetic cohort panels based on household micro-data. Results show significant difference with the common values used in Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) models which are originally based on estimated values for developed countries. We show that this difference has important ...

Impact of socio-cultural evolution on the determining the middle-class housing typology (in the middle and final period of second Pahlavi)

Introduction: Institutional housing is multi-functional that in order to form it different dimensions must be considered. One of the most important of these dimensions is the social class of its inhabitants. Its social and cultural factors influence the formation of social classes in any society. The modernization of government in the Pahlavi era led to the formation of a new middle class along...

The Effects of Price Elasticity Dynamics on a Firm’s Profit

This paper studies the dynamic behavior of price elasticity and its effects on the overall profit. Although price elasticity has a significant effect on sales, its dynamics have not been examined so far in pricing models. In this paper, a simple pricing model is suggested in which, price elasticity is considered dynamic. The suggested pricing model is concerned with a monopolist that its object...

Wave Propagation in Rectangular Nanoplates Based on a New Strain Gradient Elasticity Theory with Considering in-Plane Magnetic Field

In this paper, on the basis of a new strain gradient elasticity theory, wave propagation in rectangular nanoplates by considering in-plane magnetic field is studied. This strain gradient theory has two gradient parameters and has the ability to compare with the nonlocal elasticity theory. From the best knowledge of author, it is the first time that this theory is used for investigating wave pro...
