Abstract: The behavior of a pure copper subject to pure creep and cyclic creep under imposed load is examined at room temperature, and at 200°C, 300°C, and 400°C to show the relation ...

Abstract: To formulate the constitutive equations for cyclic plasticity, the subsequent yield surfaces should be examined carefully. In this paper, the subsequent yield surfaces have been examined from the ...

Abstract: In order to study the applicability of the proposed hybrid constitutive model for cyclic plasticity to nonproportional loading, type 304 stainless-steel specimens subjected to sinusoidal loading ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the problem of a strip with a hole subjected to cyclic loading at the ends. For the numerical analysis, a constitutive model incorporating the motion of the center of ...

Abstract: To formulate the constitutive equation for nonproportional cyclic loading, the influence of preloading on subsequent loading should be investigated experimentally. In this paper, both the stress-strain ...

Abstract: To understand the wear mechanism of the ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) articular plate used in artificial knee joints, the cyclic contact behavior of the plate during gait ...

Abstract: The current state of the art of the seismic risk analysis for the underground lifeline systems, particularly for the water transmission network system, is reviewed. An emphasis in the review ...
