Abstract: This paper is a finite element study of the nonuniform (necking) deformation of creep‐cavitating bars under constant load or constant load with superimposed hydrostatic pressure. The multiaxial constitutive model used in ...

Abstract: A set of three nonlinear partial-differential equations is derived for general finite deformations of a thin membrane. The material that composes the membrane is assumed to be hyperelastic. Its ...
