Abstract: The decay of end perturbations imposed on a rectangular plate subjected to compression is investigated in the context of plane-strain incremental finite elasticity. A separation of variables in ...

Abstract: Decay of end perturbations imposed on a prestrained semi-infinite rectangular plate is investigated in the context of plane-strain incremental finite elasticity. A separation of variables eigenfunction ...

Abstract: Research studies aiming at examination and formulation of a dynamic analog to Saint-Venant’s principle (DSVP) are critically reviewed. Article concentrates on isotropic homogeneous linear elastic ...

Abstract: Differential movements of foundations on expansive soils have caused damage to thousands of homes in California. Building damages or just out‐of‐level floors have resulted in widespread claims and repair expenses. This ...
