Abstract: General equations are presented for the determination of principal direction paths of each of the Lagrangian strain ellipsoid, Eulerian strain ellipsoid, strain rate, and Cauchy stress for uniform finite deformation of ...

Abstract: Classical isotropic hardening, nonlinear kinematic hardening, and a combined linear‐isotropic/nonlinear‐kinematic hardening theory are compared and contrasted with experimental results from nonproportional loading of ...

Abstract: The durability of concrete repair may be measured in terms of its resistance to cracking and to ingress by aggressive species. This paper addresses the various issues that form the nucleus of cracking resistance, including ...

Abstract: Deleterious damage that manifests in cracking and strength loss due to expansion and exfoliation often occurs when hardened concrete is exposed to sulfates. For a degradation-free service life, modeling sulfate attack is ...
