Rock-like materials are composites that can be regarded as a mixture composed of elastic, plastic, and viscous components. They exhibit viscoelastic-plastic behavior under a high-strain-rate loading according to element model theory. This paper presents an analytical solution for stress wave propagation in viscoelastic-plastic rock-like materials under a high-strain-rate loading and verifies th...

this article gives an approach to predict the springbackward phenomena during post solidification cooling in a functionally graded hybrid composite cylindrical shell with transverse isotropic structure. here the material properties are considered to be given with a general parabolic power-law function. during theoretical analysis, appropriate transform is introduced in the equilibrium equation ...

In some circumstances, elastic-plastic deformation occurs in which both components of strain are finite. Such situations fall outside the scope of classical plasticity theory which assumes either infinitesimal strains or plastic-rigid theory for large strains. The present theory modifies the kinematics to include finite elastic and plastic strain components. For situations requiring this genera...

for dynamic analyses of railway track structures, the algorithm of solution is very important. for estimating the important problems in the railway tracks such as the effects of rail joints, rail supports, rail modeling in the nearness of bridge and other problems, the models of the axially beam model on the elastic foundation can be utilized. for studying the effects of axially beam on the ela...

A general study is given of plane and cylindrical wave propagation of combined stress in an elastic-plastic medium. The coefficients of the governing differential equations, when written in matrix notation, are symmetric matrices and can be divided into submatrices each of which has a special form. The relations between the stresses on both sides of an elastic-plastic boundary are derived. Also...

An elastic-plastic analysis is performed for two problems relevant to fracture mechanics: a semi­ infinite body with an edge crack in a far out-of-plane shearing field and an infinite plate under plane stress conditions containing a finite line crack in a remote tensile field. Amplitudes of the dominant singularity in the plastic region at the crack tip, the plastic stress and strain intensity ...

We consider a mixed finite element method for finding approximations of the displacement and moments in a thin elastic-perfectly plastic plate. Under some weak assumptions concerning the regularity of the exact solution, we prove an error estimate for the moments.

M. A. BIOT* A non-linear analysisforfinite strain and stress has been developed and applied to symmetrical deformations around cylindrical and spherical cavities in rock. The material non-linearity which is involved may result porn either elastic or plastic properties. A drastic analytical simplification reduces the problem to the solution of a,first order differential equation. Fracture is ana...
