a 5th order shear deformation theory considering transverse shear deformation effect as well as transverse normal strain deformation effect is presented for static flexure   analysis of simply supported isotropic plate. the assumed displacement field accounts for non-linear variation of in-plane displacements as well as transverse displacement through the plate thickness. the condition of zero ...

Abstract Linear elasticity has long been considered a well-established research area using conservative field theory. However, the discovery of odd-elasticity challenges essential energy conservation assumption, which together with gyroscopic ingredients compromise fundamental theory elasticity, but to same effect, enable new directions in active elastodynamics. Here, we consider two-dimensiona...

in this study, to determine poisson’s ratio and modulus of elasticity of white seedless grapes during maturation, the fresh fruit samples were harvested from a vineyard at seven sequential weeks from 6th september to 18th october. in each run, six grape berries were randomly selected and the static loading test and digital photography were done together. considering true shape of the fruit and ...

The paper deals with a viscous damage model including two damage variables, a local and a non-local one, which are coupled through a penalty term in the free energy functional. Under certain regularity conditions for linear elasticity equations, existence and uniqueness of the solution is proven, provided that the penalization parameter is chosen sufficiently large. Moreover, the regularity of ...

This paper is concerned with a problem in the theory of elasticity for a thin composite plate. The principal terms are constructed for the asymptotics of the solution, with only local periodicity of the elastic moduli of the material and the shape of the plate assumed. The asymptotic expression is justified with the help of a weighted anisotropic Korn’s inequality, which is proved by means of t...
