Flaw identification in elastic solids: theory and experiments.

A. Gesualdo, F. Guarracino, V. Mallardo, V. Minutolo, L. Nunziante (1997)

Extracta Mathematicae

Similarity:

In this work the problem of identificating flaws or voids in elastic solids is addressed both from a theoretical and an experimental point of view. Following a so called inverse procedure, which is based on appropriately devised experiments and a particular bounding of the strain energy, a gap functional for flaw identification is proposed.

A nth-order shear deformation theory for composite laminates in cylindrical bending

A. S. Sayyad, Y. M. Ghugal (2015)

Curved and Layered Structures

Similarity:

The present study investigates whether an nthorder shear deformation theory is applicable for the composite laminates in cylindrical bending. The theory satisfies the traction free conditions at top and bottom surfaces of the plate and does not require problem dependent shear correction factor which is normally associated with the first order shear deformation theory. The well-known classical plate theory at (n = 1) and higher order shear deformation theory of Reddy at (n = 3) are the...

Betti's reciprocal theorem for Cosserat elastic shells

Franco Pastrone (1991)

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

Similarity:

It is proved that, as in three-dimensional elasticity, Betti's theorem represents a criterion for the existence of a stored-energy function for a Cosserat elastic shell.
