Abstract: The present work examines the influence of pre-existing, elastic surface stresses on instrumented sharp indentation. The surface is modeled as a homogeneous and isotropic elastoplastic solid in the context of linear ...

Abstract: This work examines the sub-shear and super-shear steady-state growth of mode III fractures in flexoelectric materials, nonetheless, exhibiting Mach type shock wave patterns that resemble reported lattice dynamics results ...

Abstract: In our previous study (Part I), the anti-plane steady-state hyperbolic mode III fracture of a magneto-flexoelectric material was solved for the displacement, the polarization, and the magnetic fields. The solution, however, ...
