Linear approximation in Continuum Mechanics

Giuseppe Grioli (1994)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Similarity:

Some critical remarks are made about the theory of Linear Elasticity, questioning on its validity in general. An alternative linear approximation of the exact theory is proposed.

The assessment of the residual post-transient stresses in elastic-perfectly plastic solids subjected to cyclic loads

Castrenze Polizzotto (1993)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Similarity:

For elastic-perfectly plastic solids (or structures) subjected to quasi-static cyclic loads, variational methods are presented for the direct eyâluation of the post-transient residual stresses, that is, the residual stresses in the structure at the end of the transient response phase, consequence of the plastic strains therein produced and crucial to predict the subsequent steady structural behaviour. The problem of the evaluation of the number of cycles spanned by the transient response...

Cohesive crack tip modelling: size-scale transition from ductile to brittle failure

Alberto Carpinteri (1990)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Similarity:

The nature of the crack and the structure behaviour can range from ductile to brittle depending on tensile strength and fracture toughness of the material, as well as on the size-scale of the solid body. Strength and toughness present in fact different physical dimensions and any consistent fracture criterion must consider energy dissipation both per unit of volume and per unit of crack area. A cohesive crack model is proposed aiming at describing the size effects of fracture mechanics,...
