Abstract: Solutions are obtained for the large, nonsteady deformation of U-notched rigid/perfectly plastic tensile bars in the plane and axisymmetric deformation modes. The solution for the plane mode is ...

Abstract: A perturbation technique is described which may be used for obtaining approximate solutions in plasticity when the field equations are hyperbolic. The characteristic parameters of the exact ...

Abstract: In 1964, Spencer proposed a model for plane deformation of soils based upon the concept that the strain at any point may be considered as the resultant of simple shears on the two surface ...
