Abstract: Axisymmetric circular plate solutions can be found in several references. A designer, in using the classical technique must, for the most part, consider loading functions not continuous over the ...

Abstract: Presented herein is a design model which may be employed to estimate the life of a nonuniformly supported surface acted upon by a translating cylinder when the latter is subjected to periodic ...

Abstract: This paper makes use of the Ramberg-Osgood stress-strain relationship to evaluate the springback angle for wire products. Natural strain is present in the analysis. In order to incorporate the ...

Abstract: This paper attempts to develop a simple expression for springback in which material properties are considered through the use of the Ramberg–Osgood stress-strain equation. Since work has been ...

Abstract: A new nonlinear finite element formulation based on total Lagrangian approach is developed by minimizing the total potential using polynomial approximations for displacements. A first-order shear deformation theory is used ...

Abstract: A damage model for a dynamically loaded composite structure under severe loading conditions is presented. The model is based on a thermodynamic micromechanic approach making use of the conservation laws and the first and ...

Abstract: This paper presents an approach for a general laminated shell geometry describable by orthogonal curvilinear coordinates. The theory includes through‐the‐thickness parabolic distribution of transverse shear stress, ...

Abstract: This paper is an analytical study of the effects of interlamina stresses near the free edge of a laminated plate due to axial and moment loading variations. A three-dimensional extension of ...

Abstract: In the determination of equilibrium phase diagrams, i.e., pressure volume-temperature relations for lubricants at pressures up to 2800 MPa and temperatures of 378K, one must carry out a highly ...
