The main goal of this research is to provide a more detailed investigation of the size-dependent response of magneto-electro-thermo-elastic (METE) nanobeams subjected to propagating wave, ...

an analysis of selected fission fragment angular distributions from helium-ion induced fission is made using an exact theoretical expression. theoretical anisotropies obtained with the transition state model are compared with their corresponding values deduced from the statistical scission model. the nuclear moment of inertia extracted from the model calculations are compared with their estimat...

We address the analysis of an abstract system coupling a rate-independent process with a second order (in time) nonlinear evolution equation. We propose suitable weak solution concepts and obtain existence results by passing to the limit in carefully devised time-discretization schemes. Our arguments combine techniques from the theory of gradient systems with the toolbox for rate-independent ev...

A common belief in phenomenological strain gradient plasticity modeling is that including the of scalar variables constitutive setting leads to size-dependent isotropic hardening, whereas second-order tensors induces kinematic hardening. The present paper shows it also possible produce hardening using scalar-based theory. For this purpose, a new model involving equivalent plastic developed and ...

the consolidation test method proposed by terzaghi and used in most soil mechanic laboratories has limitations and weaknesses. to get correct results, improvement and modification of the test method is essential. several experimental methods, such as constant loading rate, gradient and constant rate of strain (crs) have been used over the past 40 years. of these methods, crs is more advantageou...
