this paper investigates the earing phenomenon in deep drawing of aa3105 aluminum alloy, experimentally and numerically. earing defect is mainly attributed to the plastic anisotropy of sheet metal. in order to control such defect, predicting the evolution of ears in sheet metal forming analyses becomes indispensable. in this regard, the present study implements the advanced yield criterion bbc20...

A new model for fatigue damage evolution of polymer matrix composites is presented. The model is based on a combination of an orthotropic damage model and an isotropic fatigue evolution model. The orthotropic damage model is used to predict the orthotropic damage evolution within a single cycle. The isotropic fatigue model is used to predict the magnitude of fatigue damage accumulated as a func...

This paper is on the elasto-plastic analysis of plane stress problems. A five-parameter yield surface is presented. This yield criterion uses associate flow along with mixed hardening rule. The analytical formulations are written and related computer program for non-linear analysis is prepared. Finally, based on the formulations, numerical examples are solved.

buckling instability is the most important factor at columns failune. icauses large deflection and mostly is analysed by first yield criterion. due fo some difficulties in application of the criterion, soecially in inelastic columns, a new method, namely geometric criterion is introduced in this paper to improve the buckling analysis of real columns. in this research project a number box- secti...

PURPOSE To evaluate sensorimotor outcomes among children in the Infant Aphakia Treatment Study (IATS). METHODS Secondary outcome analysis was performed in this randomized, multicenter, clinical trial comparing treatment of unilateral aphakia with a primary intraocular lens (IOL) or contact lens (CL) correction. The alignment characteristics and sensory status of children through age 5 years w...

Scale factors (SFs) are widely used in engineering applications to describe the stress concentration factor (SCF) of a finite width isotropic plate with a circular hole and under uniaxial loading. In this paper, these SFs were also found to be valid in an isotropic plate with biaxial loading and an isotropic cylinder with uniaxial loading or internal pressure, if a suitable hole to structure di...

A mathematical model for analyzing horizontally polarized shear surface (SH) waves propagating in laminated plates is presented. All the layers are assumed to have monoclinic symmetry. Three types of boundary conditions imposed on the outer surfaces of a plate are considered. A variant of the modified transfer matrix (MTM) method is developed. Closed form dispersion relations are obtained for p...
