Abstract: A geometric proof of Ringleb’s theorem is indicated. Several geometric considerations as they relate to the application of this theorem to the plane-strain problem of plasticity are derived. Two ...

Abstract: A computer code is developed herein which is shown to be a useful tool in the design of labyrinth seals for gas turbine and other engineering applications. The algorithm is based upon ...

Abstract: A set of generalized equations is presented which governs the propagation of plane, cylindrical, and spherical dilatation waves in elastic media. The corresponding characteristic equations are ...

Abstract: A two-dimensional elasto-plastic finite element analysis is developed herein which has the capability of analyzing structural members which are subjected to cyclic thermal-mechanical loadings. This ...

Abstract: The von Karman equations for large deflections of an elastic circular plate containing a central hole and subjected to a concentrated ring load are presented in dimensionless and finite-difference ...

Abstract: Experimental data is compared with the simulated displacements from a computer program for the clinical activations of two separate orthodontic appliances undergoing a total of four separate ...
