Numerical simulations of the heating with constant rate of a PBX plastic-bonded explosive 9501 formulation consisting of the energetic crystal HMX embedded in a polymeric binder inside of a rigid cylinder is performed. The continuum thermo-mechanochemical model of the behavior of a PBX 9501 developed in the preceding paper V. I. Levitas, B. F. Henson, L. B. Smilowitz, D. K. Zerkle, and B. W. As...

We review an algorithm for the finite element simulation of elastoplastic solids which is capable of robustly and efficiently handling arbitrarily large deformation. In fact, the model remains valid even when large parts of the mesh are inverted. The algorithm is straightforward to implement and can be used with any material constitutive model, and for both volumetric solids and thin shells suc...

A direction-length framework is a pair (G, p), where G = (V ;D,L) is a ‘mixed’ graph whose edges are labeled as ‘direction’ or ‘length’ edges, and p is a map from V to R for some d. The label of an edge uv represents a direction or length constraint between p(u) and p(v). Let G be obtained from G by adding, for each length edge e of G, a direction edge with the same end vertices as e. We show t...

Деформирование сплошных сред из материалов с памятью формы под влиянием возрастающей нагрузки и при постоянной температуре протекает обычным для металлов идеальным упругопластическим образом. При этом величина максимальных упругих деформаций много меньше предельных пластических. Восстановление происходит повышенной невысоком уровне напряжений. Феноменологически «обратное» деформирование аналоги...
