Abstract: It is a well‐known paradox in the theory of plastic plate buckling that the discredited deformation theory of plasticity predicts the buckling stress well, whereas the generally accepted incremental theory predicts a ...

Abstract: A theoretical solution for the subcritical growth of a crack in a quasi‐brittle solid is applied to predict the time for progressive failure to develop in a heavily overconsolidated clay slope. The solution utilizes the ...

Abstract: A new elastoplastic model is presented for predicting the stress/strain response of asphalt concrete under cyclic loading. The model utilizes multiyield surfaces and isotropic hardening. Rowe's stress dilatancy theory is ...
