Determination of the initial stress tensor from deformation of underground opening -- theoretical background and applications

Malík, Josef, Kolcun, Alexej

Similarity:

In this paper a method for the detection of initial stress tensor is proposed. The method is based on measuring distances between some pairs of points located on the wall of underground opening in the excavation process. This methods is based on the solution of eighteen auxiliary problems in the theory of elasticity with force boundary conditions. The optimal location of the pairs of points on the wall of underground work is studied. The pairs must be located so that the condition number...

A paradox in the theory of linear elasticity

Jindřich Nečas, Miloš Štípl (1976)

Aplikace matematiky

Similarity:

Let us have the system of partial differential equations of the linear elasticity. We show that the solution of this system with a bounded boundary condition is not generally bounded (i.e., the displacement vector is not bounded). This example is a modification of that given by E. De Giorgi [1].

On the domain of applicability of the Mori-Tanaka effective medium theory

Mauro Ferrari (1991)

Similarity:

The Mori-Tanaka effective stiffness tensor is shown to be asymmetric in general. This tensor is proven to be symmetric for composites with isotropic inclusions, or with spherical reinforcements. Symmetry is also proven for the case of unidirectional fibers, of any shape and material. The Mori-Tanaka theory is shown to yield physically unacceptable predictions at the high concentration limit.

A Spectral Theory for Tensors

Edinah K. Gnang, Ahmed Elgammal, Vladimir Retakh (2011)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

In this paper we propose a general spectral theory for tensors. Our proposed factorization decomposes a tensor into a product of orthogonal and scaling tensors. At the same time, our factorization yields an expansion of a tensor as a summation of outer products of lower order tensors. Our proposed factorization shows the relationship between the eigen-objects and the generalised characteristic polynomials. Our framework is based on a consistent multilinear algebra which explains how...
