COMPUTATION of generalized stress intensity factors for bonded elastic structures

Marius Bochniak, Anna–Margarete Sändig (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

We consider coupled structures consisting of two different linear elastic materials bonded along an interface. The material discontinuities combined with geometrical peculiarities of the outer boundary lead to unbounded stresses. The mathematical analysis of the singular behaviour of the elastic fields, especially near points where the interface meets the outer boundary, can be performed by means of asymptotic expansions with respect to the distance from the geometrical and structural...

Analysis of crack singularities in an aging elastic material

Martin Costabel, Monique Dauge, SergeïA. Nazarov, Jan Sokolowski (2006)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

We consider a quasistatic system involving a Volterra kernel modelling an hereditarily-elastic aging body. We are concerned with the behavior of displacement and stress fields in the neighborhood of cracks. In this paper, we investigate the case of a straight crack in a two-dimensional domain with a possibly anisotropic material law. We study the asymptotics of the time dependent solution near the crack tips. We prove that, depending on the regularity of the material law and the...

Regularity of displacement solutions in Hencky plasticity. II: The main result

Jarosław L. Bojarski (2011)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

The aim of this paper is to study the problem of regularity of displacement solutions in Hencky plasticity. Here, a non-homogeneous material is considered, where the elastic-plastic properties change discontinuously. In the first part, we have found the extremal relation between the displacement formulation defined on the space of bounded deformation and the stress formulation of the variational problem in Hencky plasticity. In the second part, we prove that the displacement...

On the change of energy caused by crack propagation in 3-dimensional anisotropic solids

Martin Steigemann, Maria Specovius-Neugebauer (2014)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

Crack propagation in anisotropic materials is a persistent problem. A general concept to predict crack growth is the energy principle: A crack can only grow, if energy is released. We study the change of potential energy caused by a propagating crack in a fully three-dimensional solid consisting of an anisotropic material. Based on methods of asymptotic analysis (method of matched asymptotic expansions) we give a formula for the decrease in potential energy if a smooth inner crack grows...

General method of regularization. III: The unilateral contact problem

Jarosław L. Bojarski (2004)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

The aim of this paper is to prove that the relaxation of the elastic-perfectly plastic energy (of a solid made of a Hencky material with the Signorini constraints on the boundary) is the weak* lower semicontinuous regularization of the plastic energy. We consider an elastic-plastic solid endowed with the von Mises (or Tresca) yield condition. Moreover, we show that the set of solutions of the relaxed problem is equal to the set of solutions of the relaxed problem proposed by Suquet....

On the solution of boundary value problems for sandwich plates

Igor Bock, Ivan Hlaváček, Ján Lovíšek (1986)

Aplikace matematiky

Similarity:

A mathematical model of the equilibrium problem of elastic sandwich plates is established. Using the theory of inequalities of Korn's type for a general class of elliptic systems the existence and uniqueness of a variational solution is proved.

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.
